Why do people brush their teeth first thing in the morning?

The way I'm used to it is: 1. Wake up 2. Breakfast 3. Brush teeth.

Having it as 1, 3, 2 doesn't make sense for me.

  • Having to wear a removable retainer at night means I wake up with congealed spit stuck to my gums and teeth. The visceral ick of swallowing that is indescribable, so I will brush my teeth first thing, then eat breakfast.
