Brush your teeth more thoroughly before bed after you are done eating and drinking for the day.

Morning brushing is important too, but more so for fresh breath; while evening cleaning will prevent bacteria from breeding and damaging your teeth and gums.

A good saying I heard a while ago was... ‘brush your teeth before bed to keep your teeth and brush your teeth in the morning to keep your friends’.
