Task

Brush teeth (night)

+15 XP+5 gems

Why this matters

Why bother?

Saliva production drops while you sleep, so any food residue feeds bacteria for 8 hours. Night brushing matters even more than morning.

How often

Every night before bed.

Best time: Right before bed, after your last food or drink (other than water).

Pro tip

Floss BEFORE you brush, not after. The fluoride reaches between teeth more effectively.

Common mistake

Skipping flossing. A toothbrush misses ~35% of tooth surfaces.

What happens if you skip

Cavities form between teeth where the brush doesn't reach. Flossing is the actual game changer.
