Is it better to brush your teeth before meals or after meals?

It is best to brush your teeth after meals, especially after meals! Why do you say that?

Don't eat anything after brushing your teeth after meals, because when people rest at night, their bodies are at rest, saliva is not secreted, and the temperature in their mouths is very high. If you don't brush your teeth after dinner, the food residue in your mouth will ferment and mold, and the bacteria will multiply for a long time, which will lead to dental caries, that is, tooth decay. Therefore, brushing your teeth after meals is very important!

I think it is ok to brush your teeth before and after meals, and it is also a folk practice.

I get up in the morning, wash my face and brush my teeth. Because I have to go to work in the morning, I am busy, and there are more liquid foods such as soy milk. Generally, you don't brush your teeth after dinner. I just washed it with water. After lunch, some people use toothbrushes, others use water. It's not the same after dinner. Be sure to brush your teeth before going to bed, so keep brushing your teeth 2 13 times a day.

But it is different for patients who also have dental diseases. You can also increase the frequency of brushing your teeth. People with dentures should clean them after every meal.

Therefore, whether you brush your teeth before or after meals, you must protect your teeth, which can prolong your life.

Brushing teeth after meals is more conducive to oral and dental health care.

Rinsing your mouth before every meal should become a habit.

Because there will be food residues in the teeth after meals, if they are not removed in time, qualitative changes will occur, and the food residues after qualitative changes are very conducive to the reproduction of oral bacteria and become the inducing factors of dental plaque, dental caries, periodontitis, pulpitis and other diseases.

Theoretically, brushing your teeth after meals is the best, but this is obviously unrealistic.

Personal experience, when your mouth is healthy, you can brush your teeth twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. It is recommended to brush your teeth after breakfast in the morning and before going to bed after dinner in the evening.

There are different opinions about brushing your teeth before or after meals, and each has its own reasons. It seems that everything is reasonable. I am in favor of brushing your teeth before meals and gargling after meals. From the perspective of health care, brushing your teeth before meals is more conducive to your health. After a night of peristalsis and digestion, the gastrointestinal tract will produce some upward gas in the process of grinding, decomposition and metabolism, which will cause oral odor and bacteria multiply in the oral cavity. Brushing your teeth will clean your mouth, remove the breeding flora, make your breath fresh, and promote saliva secretion. At the same time, the gastrointestinal tract will also be prepared under the stimulation of saliva secretion, so eating breakfast will be more conducive to the strong function of the spleen and stomach, and gastrointestinal absorption will be better.

If you brush your teeth after meals, you will not only bring some bacteria into your stomach, but also the smell of your mouth and the sticky secretions in your mouth will affect your appetite. When eating, you will feel "no taste in your mouth" and lack the feeling of "wide appetite" because this feeling will promote the secretion of saliva and gastric juice. If the secretion is reduced, it will affect your digestion and reduce your spleen and stomach function for a long time.

It is recommended to brush your teeth before eating. After eating, it is best to rinse your mouth with light salt water or light tea. Both salt water and tea can clean the mouth to some extent. This washes away the food residue in your mouth. Because you need to drink water during the day, you can clean it at any time to keep your mouth fresh. If you eat sour or sweet food for breakfast, it is recommended to rinse your mouth with salt water about 20 minutes after the meal.

Brushing teeth is something that each of us must do every day. But from China.
