I’ve never understood the appeal, or how it works.
- do people just wake up and start consuming food/drink without brushing their teeth & washing their face?
- if not, do they get out of bed to wash up and then get back in bed to eat!?
- what’s the appeal? I get liking someone else making your breakfast, but why is having it in bed fun?
I suppose you don’t HAVE to. But I find it unhygienic to eat before brushing my teeth as soon as I wake up. Might just be my personal issue. 🤷♂️
Vibes based hygiene
that’s like wiping before you shit
I was told by a dentist to brush my teeth before eating. So at least one dentist would disagree with that I guess?
I’ve read that it helps protect your teeth from all the acidic food you’re gonna eat for breakfast, not necessarily for “hygiene” purposes.
When you brush your teeth and don’t use mouthwash right after, the tooth paste forms a protective barrier to help prevent erosion and acid damage.
That’s the 1 in 5 dentists who don’t recommend a fluoride toothpaste.
Dentist: “Use toothpicks, shove em under your gums! Use the blood as your toothpaste! You can even do it to other stuff, too, like digging out a bladder stone!”
Me, in the chair in the office: 😐😶😯🫨
What, you don’t do it both before and after?
It’s just like showers, you take one as you get out of bed, and another one right before going to bed.
Some people are just dirty, sheeesh…
Edit: -> /s
Almost no one showers more than once per day. So for you, “most people are just dirty”, not just “some”.
I added the sarcasm to my previous comment…
The taste of toothpaste lingers for a while and ruins the flavor of breakfast, especially orange juice.
The Way™ is Coffee/tea/juice to temporarily overwrite that morning breath feeling, then breakfast, then brushing teeth.
The way™️ is to drink enough water and actually brush before bed. If you’re sufficiently hydrated, and you don’t have all that bacteria shitting up your mouth then your morning breath will be a lot less stanky.
Your way is to have to pee all night.
I’m not saying drink a gallon right before bed. Drink plenty of water throughout the day, then slowly less and less until it’s about bed time. Then take a fat piss before you go to bed.
Instructions unclear. Urinated on hooker and got charged extra.
For me it’s the other way around. After eating I want to clean my teeth.
