Brushing Teeth on Tisha B’Av
Question
Dear Rabbi,
I was wondering if it is permissible for me to brush my teeth on Tisha B’Av. I keep getting conflicting answers when I look it up, so I’m a bit confused. It’s pretty uncomfortable when I don’t brush my teeth, but I understand that’s the point of a fast, I just can never remember what’s permissible on what fast day.
thank you so much.
