When you are sleeping, your mouth gets drier than it does during the day, causing bacteria to proliferate. If you brush before bed, most of the bacteria gets removed before it can harm your teeth
Answer2: Brushing at bedtime clears away all the damaging plaque and bacteria that collects on teeth during the day. Brushing will help ward off tooth decay, gum disease and tooth loss.

∙ 15y agoIt is best to brush your teeth at night because it not only kills plaque but it keeps you from getting cavities in your teeth and takes all the food from that day out of your teeth.If you don't brush your teeth they will turn yellowish then a very dark yellow then black rooten and start to fall out.So always brush your teeth for 2 minutes morning and night.Then your teeth will stay white and shiny.

Saliva is a double edged sword: We need it to break down our food and keep bacteria flowing rather than stagnant, but at the same time saliva is filled with plaque bacteria. However, it is still better to have saliva flowing rather than stagnant.

if we brush the teeth in night, all food particles will be cleaned so there is no rapid bacterial multiplication. This avoids various dental problems.
