There has been much debate surrounding the optimal time to brush your teeth – before or after breakfast. In order to settle this ongoing dispute, we have conducted research and come to a conclusion.
The Best Time to Brush:

The most common practice is to brush your teeth in the morning after waking up and in the evening before going to bed. When it comes to brushing in the morning, experts recommend doing so before breakfast.
Benefits of Brushing Before Breakfast:
During sleep, bacteria in the mouth multiply, leading to plaque buildup and causing bad breath upon waking up. By brushing your teeth immediately after waking up, you create a protective layer of fluoride on your teeth before eating, preventing plaque buildup and keeping bacteria from entering the breakfast you are about to consume.
Drawbacks of Brushing After Breakfast:

It is recommended to wait at least 30 minutes after consuming acidic foods and beverages such as toast, coffee, and orange juice – popular breakfast items – before brushing your teeth. Brushing immediately after eating can potentially damage the tooth enamel, which is why studies suggest that brushing before breakfast is the better option. Keep this in mind when you wake up tomorrow.
Advice for Those Who Prefer Brushing After Breakfast:
