It is best to only drink water after you have brushed and flossed your teeth, especially before going to bed. This allows your teeth to be in the cleanest state possible while you are sleeping.
Not at all
It is not bad to drink water after brushing your teeth as long as it is not flavored with sugar.
No, not at all. It's good to drink water to stay hydrated.
In general, it is best not to drink anything for 20-30 minutes after oral hygiene to allow the fluoride from your toothpaste to work like a medicine. However, drinking water after brushing your teeth is not "bad." It simply washes more of the toothpaste off the teeth.
