"It is more correct to brush teeth before breakfast."
Medianews.az reports that this was stated by dentist Dipa Chopra.
According to her, this removes the bacteria and dental plaque accumulated overnight, and also creates a protective layer on the teeth.
The specialist points out that brushing teeth immediately after breakfast can be harmful. Especially after consuming acidic foods such as fruit or juice, the enamel temporarily weakens and brushing at this time may cause it to wear down faster.
If there is a habit of brushing teeth after breakfast, it is recommended to wait at least 30 minutes. During this period, saliva neutralizes the acids and enamel is restored.
