When to brush your teeth: before or after breakfast – the doctor’s answer
Regular oral hygiene is the key to healthy teeth. At the same time, many may argue about when it is better to brush your teeth in the morning: before or after breakfast. The answer to this question was given by Dr. Zurab Khabadze.
He noted that many people make mistakes in this regard, Gazeta.Ru reports.
The doctor said that it is better to brush your teeth in the morning before eating. But immediately after this procedure, you cannot eat for another half hour so that the teeth have time to be covered with a protective film consisting of saliva proteins.
The doctor reminded me that it is necessary to choose the right toothbrush.
For example, if you use a brush with soft bristles without instructions, this can lead to problems.
The selection of toothpaste should also be done after visiting a doctor and having a consultation, otherwise mistakes can only lead to new problems.
Khabadze added that one should not forget about additional hygiene measures, which include using dental floss, etc.
