Dr. Iman Sadri has been a dentist since 2008 and has a very conservative philosophy when it comes to teeth. Teeth are strong and don't decompose in the afterlife (unless someone is cremated).
Brushing your teeth before taking a nap is imperative to maintain good oral hygiene, especially if you nap frequently. Customarily people eat a meal prior to napping or have already ate in the day. When you nap your mouth is closed for a prolonged period. Without brushing prior to napping people can wake up to bad breath and a drier mouth. Bacteria can progress around areas where food particles are left behind, progressing periodontal disease. In geriatric populations root decay (cavities around the roots of teeth) can be progressive, especially since they may be taking a greater number of medications.
Napping is a form of sleep and prolonged napping where the mouth is closed for an extended period can be deleterious to your oral health and overall health. The mouth is the window to the health of the body.
