Brush Before Bed

Bad habits are hard to break and good habits can be hard to start. Think about how long your day is and the foods you are consuming at work or on-the-go. Dr. Dennis Morehart, DDS understands that his patients lead busy lives, but he hopes that each of them is taking care of their dental health throughout the day. It’s recommended to brush your teeth at two times a day, one being before bed.


Every time we eat a meal, the bacteria reside and feast on the leftover food particles. Just like every other living organism, these bacteria excrete waste. This waste is highly acidic and attacks tooth enamel causing cavities. Brushing your teeth before bed can reduce the yucky feeling that morning breath leaves behind. If you’re too exhausted to brush before bed, leave a toothbrush in the nightstand because even a little cleaning goes a long way.
