Floss first, then brush.  The bacteria in the plaque that's on your teeth will use the food particles, especially carbs, as fuel, then will give off toxins and acids as waste products.  This is not what you want sitting on your teeth all nite!  You'll end up with cavities and/ or gingivitis.  Brushing before bed is the most important time to brush!

By brushing,we are mechanically cleansing our teeth free of debris,i.e., food particles.It can be done anytime but it serves its purpose when done after meals.We brush in the morning to get rid of the odor due to stagnant saliva during the night.Brushing gives a fresh feeling.The appropriate time is our own choice.Since brushing after meals might seem tedious,brushing twice which is minimally required is advised.

You are actually supposed to brush your tounge. It helps clean your tounge, and unless you want to use a tounge scrubber, you should clean your tounge every time you brush. And no, it's not harmfull (Unless you do it 50 times a day or something. That's probably not good)

Please visit a dentist in your area and get your stained teeth cleaned and make a habit of visiting your dentist at least once a year to keep your teeth clean, healthy and strong.  Before visiting a dentist, you can try cleaning your stained teeth with cooking salt daily mixed with few drops of edible oil and adding little cinnamon powder and turmeric powder for better flavour and protection but the best advice would be that you must visit a dentist for quick solution without wasting your time in search of natural remedy.  It is most advisable that you must brush your teeth before retiring to bed at night to prevent further damage.  Enjoy and best of health.

The reason for morning breath is that there has been no moisture/water in your mouth all night.  During the day, you drink, and keep your mouth hydrated.  The best thing to combat bad breath is to drink lots of water, keep your mouth moist.

Besides brushing your teeth and flossing, make sure when you brush, to also brush your tongue. As far back as you can without gagging. It really does work to do this after meals. I also chew gum, and use those little breath strips and sprays. I have pretty bad breath and I am a smoker. This stuff helps, try getting your teeth cleaned, it doesn't cost to much and it is cheaper than fixing a cavity. Hope this helps.

Breakfast comes before lunch.

Probably happens when you shower. The germs are getting into you mouth and causing cavities. I would avoid all showering and washing above the neck if I were you. And try to avoid the dentist at all cost, it is a well known conspiracy that they are injecting you with cavitie forming micros's so they can collect more of your money.

Brushing 2 to 3 times a day is excellent, as long as your brushing correctly. Brush sides of teeth, top of teeth and gently on the gum line for at least two minutes.  Brush your tongue and floss at least once a day.  Listerine is a good but very strong product, use it sparingly.  Continue to see your dentist for treatment, and I promise the health of your teeth and gums will get better.

Hello I was wonder if you are a soda drinker? I know from personal experience that if you drink pop you must clean your teeth after word or the sugar & acid in it remain on your teeth almost all day even more so on your back teeth. so after eating or drinking anything try to risen out ur mouth with water or even wipe ur teeth off after woulds with a cloth if you can't bruse them every lillte bit helps when wanting to save ur teeth or give up drinking anything persweetened(pop,tea,coffee sweetened,lemonaides,etc.)Try using paste that are good for ur type of teeth and ask ur Dentist about it may you need a coating placed over your teeth to help them be portected.

Because the bacteria in your mouth multiply overnight while your mouth is relatively dry and there is nothing coming through to stimulate the saliva to wash it away. n People who sleep with their mouths open have the worst time with sticky mouth and nasty breath.

Well, coffee and tea stain your teeth.  Milk, I believe would be good for them.  Hope I help some.

I work in a dental office.  The only time you will really have problems is if you give the child milk in a bottle or sippy cup to take into bed with them.  If they fall asleep with the cup or bottle still in their mouth and the milk is allowed to drain into their mouth, that is when the sugar from the milk forms cavities.  As long as you are brushing their teeth multiple times throughout the day otherwise, and feeding them a healthy diet, giving them milk right before bed is fine.
