Shower at night for yourself, shower in the morning for other people.
There seems to be a misconception that showering at night, getting into a clean bed and waking means you’re still clean… The truth is the majority of odours and filth come from you. Sweat, dead skin, other stuff…
These posts are always positioned as a binary, even when you can do both, and there’s some nuance to it all.
It’s reasonable for most people to hit the Carlin-4 twice a day. If not for social reasons, then for health and hygiene.
Dentists say we ought to brush twice a day, morning and night. My dentist once told me that if I’m only going to brush once a day, then it should be at night. You don’t produce as much saliva while sleeping as you do while awake, and that create a better environment for the bacteria that cause tooth decay. Brushing at night removes the tiny food particles the bacteria feed on, reducing the likelihood of developing tooth decay and gingivitis.
We then brush again in the morning because the lack of flowing saliva overnight causes a buildup of other bacteria that feeds on mucus, which is the cause of “morning breath”.
For me it started with not breathing well through my noses so my mouth would taste awful when I woke up from being all dry and weird. Then it became an excuse to get my ass out of bed and moving.
Because your body naturally produces things you need to clean, it’s like 75% of the reason you do it. Eating stuff just speeds up the production of bacteria. Give your breath a smell as you wake up in the morning before you eat anything, it reeks.
You should brush your teeth in the morning whether you eat breakfast or not.
The way I always heard it from multiple dentists is “if you want to keep your friends brush in the morning, if you want to keep your teeth brush at night, best is both.”

You absolutely shouldn’t be showering twice a day…
Exactly, you also need a shower after lunch…

Like, do you brush your teeth in the morning or at night?
But you haven’t eaten anything in the night, right?
That’s the logic on display here.
I eat dinner though
After you go to bed?
Gotta keep that emergency tendie stash on the headboard

Right? And I’ve been saying that at night, whilst you sleep, a similar process happens all over your body.
Sweat, dead cells, farting under the duvet.
That’s why we shower in the morning too.
Bed time isn’t a magical clean stasis. Biological processes happen. People seem to miss that in this weird debate.
The point being that you are going to bed with a day full of activity/dirt/sweat/stank.
I don’t brush my teeth after sleeping, either. After breakfast, sure, but first thing in the am? Why?

Dentist never heard of a mint?
Also I thought morning brushing was about teeth because most smells are on the tongue not the teeth unless there’d an abscess or something.
Does everybody brush/scrape their tongue every morning?
