You do oil pulling before you brush. Full stop. No debate. Do it first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.
Think of it as the pre-game for your teeth. You’re loosening up all that gunk and bacteria before the real cleaning happens.
Here’s the logic: oil pulling is like a gentle, fatty bouncer. It pulls out the sticky, nasty stuff that brushing alone might miss.
But if you brush first? You’ve already scraped off the plaque. The oil has nothing fun to do. It’s like showing up to a party after everyone’s gone home. Sad and useless.
What About The Fluoride? (The Drama)
Ah, here’s where it gets spicy. Fluoride is the hero of your toothpaste. Oil is the messy, indulgent cousin.
If you oil pull after brushing, you’re basically washing away all that protective fluoride. You are throwing money (and cavity protection) down the drain.
Do you really want to cancel out your fancy toothpaste? I didn’t think so. Oil first, then brush keeps the fluoride game strong.
Plus, nobody wants an oily residue lingering on their teeth after brushing. That’s a texture nightmare. Do it right, and your mouth feels clean, not like a salad bowl.
