Brushing helps remove food particles, bacteria, and other debris from your mouth, which can contaminate the DNA sample. This ensures that the swab collects mostly your cells and not unwanted material.

Waiting for 30 minutes after brushing your teeth before performing a buccal swab is recommended to minimise the risk of contamination from foreign substances like toothpaste and to ensure the accuracy of the DNA sample.

It also allows time for your mouth to return to its natural state, reducing the presence of these substances and ensuring that the swab collects a pure sample of your epithelial cells, which are needed for accurate DNA analysis.
