Before...

Although I remember my dentist saying it was better to do it that way and not immediately after you eat breakfast,
As there's a layer of bacteria that builds up as you sleep, then you have the added layer of food bacteria, and most likely you won't clear all the old bacteria effeciently so they're will be more left.
(kinda like how, if you were to let limescale or grease build up, top layer is easy to clean but the bottom layer is quite difficult)

They said brushing first thing is better as it gets rid of the build up from sleep, then creates a protective barrier for the incoming food bacteria.

i try to be as hygienic as possible but sometimes doing even basic things like brushing my teeth are emotionally draining to me :(
