Do you brush your teeth before drinking?

Brushing teeth even with mint toothpaste won't affect your enjoyment of beer, unless its like 5 min. or less afterwards. Do you drink beer with or after highly seasoned food? Same concept, just wait a little while.

 

This....

 

Brush with baking soda.

 

My wife will brush her teeth immediately before going out for a meal. I've never understood the use of this.

I brush teeth after dry cereal in the morning, and right before bed when I'm done eating or drinking anything other than water.

 

No, but I always make sure to take a shower before drinking.

 

Exactly this for me too, dry cereal and all.

 

Or during...

 

Touché.

 

I get up, get a beer out of the fridge and set it on the counter, feed and/or walk the animals, drink the beer I sat out to warm up, maybe eat something...then brush my teeth.

 

Ewww, no. Everything and anything tastes a bit wierd behind minty toothpaste.

 

how was this thread not deleted?

 

my brushing habits and drinking habits never seem to cross.

 

No. But I go out of my way to make sure I do nasal irrigation with a Neti pot before drinking. Opens up the pineal gland.

 

If I'm consuming anything other than coffee or water within 30 minutes, I brush without paste. Good technique will still do what you need to do.

 

Sometimes it's necessary.

 

I brush my teeth once per day in the morning. Whether they need it or not. Most of the time I skip Sundays. I have straight, clean teeth that are just off white (not luminescent like people on TV) and I've never had a cavity in my 42 years. Brushing your teeth just makes them clean, it doesn't prevent cavities or bad breath. Just sayin'.

 

No, but I do make sure to drink before brushing my teeth.

 

No...I just take 'em out before having a beer....

 

And what do your gums have to say about that?

You're obviously doing enough with the once a day routine, but if you're implying that it's not for health reasons, or that people could do with skipping altogether, that would be incorrect.
