Not sure if this is 100% scientifically backed but I read a bit by a dental hygienist on a forum that you shouldn’t rinse when brushing with proper toothpaste because it can help remineralize the teeth if when its not rinsed away after
Its annoying but its a good way to cut down on mindless snacking at the very least for me so its something I do sometimes. Hope its not voodoo
Just let it sit for 10-15 minutes, then reward yourself by washing it down with a cup of fresh orange juice.
Acid and sugar as a dental hygiene advice. Really?
In this context you might as well recommend a Coca Cola!
I think you’ve been whooshed.
If you drink juice with toothpaste still in your mouth, it’s awful. The toothpaste is basic, the oj is acidic as you said. The reaction doesn’t taste food. This was a joke, not advice.
It’s the foaming agent toothpastes typically use (sodium laureth sulphate - SLS) suppresses the sweet receptors on our tongues.
When you drink OJ right after, the sweetness is suppressed and you only taste the bitter and other flavors.
Edit: SLS also breaks up lipids that may be blocking bitter taste receptors on your tongue.
