IslamToday - English. Many people avoid brushing their teeth during the day in Ramadan. This is a mistake, since there is no contradiction between observing the fast and brushing one's teeth. We must understand that the word âsiwÃ¢kâ does not just refer to the tree branches that are used as tooth sticks, but to the act of brushing the teeth itself.
My doctor and and lab have never told me I couldn't brush my teeth before fasting. I doubt toothpaste or mouthwash would have any effect. These are not ingested after all and there is no sugar in those products anyway. So brush your teeth, rinse, drink water before you take your fasting blood sugar in the morning. And make sure you wash your hands.
