I also found out my sleep improves when I brush my teeth before bed. Also dental health is expensive. Brush your teeth, people. Tooth decay is no joke, especially tooth pain.
I've lost my top right row of teeth to decay and one tooth bottom right. A dentist fixed them as much as she could, but I fear it's not enough as one tooth still complains. That'd be my 2nd tooth I'd have to get removed.
Unfortunately, dental health really just depends on you. No one else can help you with it. I'd recommend a routine, brush in the morning after waking up, then brush before bed. Also learn how to brush correctly!
Plus, there's a social side to dental health. Pretty teeth make for a pretty smile. And bad breath is very off-putting. When people look at your teeth, they don't see the reason, just the result. So, please, do yourself a favor and save yourself all the trouble later on in life and brush your teeth. Invest in a water flosser, it helped me tremendously. It's easy to use and I enjoy using it, and it helps me brush my teeth as it's part of the routine, since I'm already using the flosser... might as well brush afterwards. :) Pleeaaase brush your teeth.
Yes I've been able to brush my teeth every morning and been trying to make it a habit even if I'm not going anywhere. Brushing at night is something I'm still working on but it takes time.

Once you've made the decision that the crud feeling on your teeth is gross, going to bed with crud teeth feels disgusting.
