Eating Before A Cleaning
For some dental procedures, you will be asked not to eat or drink beforehand. For basic cleanings, you technically can eat anything you want before coming in, but dentists would prefer you didn’t.
The reason why is that they will have to take the time to remove food particles in order to check for cavities. While it may seem redundant, brushing your teeth before heading to the dentist makes their job easier and more efficient.
