Agreed Ashok – this article is meant to describe individuals who will do an especially thorough cleaning and flossing job the morning before seeing the dentist as opposed to doing a thorough job on a more regular basis.

If you don’t do this before you attend the dentist then your not giving yourself a chance!

But I always brush and floss before seeing my dentist as a common curtesy and to show some RESPECT.

Thanks for sharing that Dominic. As a dentist, I’m sure you appreciate fresh breath no matter what the reason might be for it.

I don’t do it because I’m conscious of what others think of me though, I do it because I want my breath to smell minty fresh for the dentist. Trust me… I am a dentist (haha)

Although this is a great post and I’m sure it’s applicable to many patients out there!

That’s a good point Randall. It all comes down to intention – are you brushing because you believe it’s a common courtesy or brushing because you don’t want the dentist to think you’re a slob. If you’re focused on the dentist, then that’s great.

Also its creating MORE WORK for the dentist, now they have to scrub off all the stuff from your teeth. i get the analogy and the point of the article but just disagree with the example. Brushing your teeth before the doctor is a service to mankind, not a way to prove that you care too much about what other people think.

Thanks Yen – I recently had a similar conversation with a friend over cleaning before the cleaning lady comes.

Thanks for the other view on this.

I do it as a courtesy, i always thought the objective of visiting a dentist was for a check up, and secondary was for a clean, but you’ve made a fair point.
