Do you brush your teeth before or after eating breakfast?

I always do it after since my food will taste no different with morning breath and also because I don't like eating after brushing my teeth. Also, my mouth will be clean of food right after as well.

  • Before and after breakfast as well as before I retreat to my coffin to escape the sun's accursed face and slumber through another wicked day.

    I brush, floss and gargle before breakfast because it's better for your health (my mom's a dentist) and because I don't always have time for breakfast so if I wait til after I wouldn't always brush my teeth :S

    I brush my teeth when I first wake up because it bothers me not to, and I also brush my teeth after I eat breakfast. I brush my teeth several times a day.

    Before and after, but the timing is important. Otherwise you can't really taste the food.

    It's like a family routine that we brush our teeth straight right after we wake up. I'm against it though.

    You should never, ever brush your teeth straight after breakfast, as it rubs off the enamel due to the food softening it up temporarily. Wait at least half an hour. You also shouldn't eat your breakfast before brushing your teeth, as the food will spread the bacteria, collected in your mouth overnight, all over your teeth.

    after breakfast...Bruushing your teeth before breakfast when breakfast usually includes orange juice is NOT good
