Why do you brush your teeth before going to the dentist

I brush my teeth the same as I always do.  I don't brush only because I am going to the dentist.

I brush my teeth before going to the Dentist because I do not want bad breath for them to smell. I have come to realize that Dentists themselves have bad breath.
