AFTER EACH MEAL IS BEST, BUT TWICE/DAY WILL SUFFICE



Brushing Twice a Day Helps to Keep the Cavities Away
When you brush your teeth properly, at least twice a day, you are removing the plaque that causes cavities. Plaque is the soft and sticky substance that accumulates on the teeth from food debris and bacteria. Flossing daily will remove the plaque from in between the teeth that the toothbrush cannot reach. Removing plaque from your teeth also helps to prevent gum disease.



the recommended health-care plan is first thing in the morning and last thing at night, this is justified by saying brushing the teeth after drinking say fruit juice is not recommended as the juice softens the enamel of the teeth and it may lead to damage, apparently the same applies to some other foods.



like 3 and not after every mean cuz theink abt it if u do it after every mean then u wont have ur teeth brushed in the morning or the night , so morning, evening and night and if u eat too much sugary stuff then after that

btw i do mine atleast 2x a day and my teeth are perfect so u could live with doing that much



They say 2, however due to increased chemicals in both food and drinks you may have to brush your teeth after eating/drinking to decrease any risk of acid errosion.



Usually after each meal and last thing at night.

GP for more years than I care to remember



3. Or after every meal.
