Answers:
actually the main purpose of brushing is to remove plaque!. brushing before or after breakfast is no right or wrong!. it is according to person perference and social norm!.

i thought brushing 1st thing in the morning so that the person won't forget or get too busy to brush afterwards, you know, rushing off to work ect!.


cleaning immediately right after eating is actually not good for the teeth!. once the food gets into contact with the teeth, there are certain degree of decalcification, the tooth structure becoming a little softer here and will most likely be worn away with brushing!. a time interval of at least 30-40minutes is needed for the teeth to becomes reminerailsed when the oral pH returns back to neutral by action of the saliva!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Immediately after eating food the acid levels in the mouth rise meaning the protective coating of the tooth (enamel) is more likely to be damaged by brushing!. Brush before breakfast!. The fluoride in the toothpaste will help to protect your teeth against breakfast acids!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You clean your teeth before breakfast because the bacteria on your teeth has been multiplying and growing for about 8 hours since you last cleaned your teeth!.

It's not about cleaning bits of food, it's about removing as much bacteria and plaque as you can/Www@Answer-Health@Com
