# On fast days besides for Tisha BeAv and Yom Kippur, if it will be difficult for one not to brush, one is allowed to brush one's teeth as long as one doesn't put a [[Reviyit]] of water in one's mouth at a time and ensures that one doesn't swallow any water.<Ref> Yalkut Yosef (Moadim pg 534) writes that for all fast days besides Tisha BeAv one if it will be difficult for one not to brush one is allowed to brush one's teeth as long as one doesn't put a [[Reviyit]] of water in one's mouth at a time and ensures that one doesn't swallow any water. Sh”t Minchat Yitzchak 4:109 (quoted in Piskei Teshuvot 567:1) agrees. See [http://www.dailyhalacha.com/Display.asp?ClipDate=3/8/2009 Rabbi Mansour on DailyHalacha.com] who writes that one may brush one's teeth with less than 3 oz of water but one should keep his head bent downward and spit the water out immediately, without gargling, to avoid swallowing any water. </ref> | |||
