Lightbulb Getting rid of bad breath....

Don't laugh but colgate seem to be too weak for some people and breaths be kicking especially when someone talking to you and spitting in your face. Sometimes I want to extend a winter fresh but is that the only cure for their sickness??

Do you have any remedies on how to get rid of bad breath??? How about morning breath??

LOL @ migraine.

My recommendations.... colgate, flossing, mouth wash, visit dentist 2 times a year and walk with breath mints, toothbrush and paste as well as some mouth spray.

Re: Getting rid of bad breath....

Well when I went to the dentist, she told me that a big cause of bad breath is old plaque below the gum line and that's why you must get your teeth cleaned. I was asking because my ex "Stupid" had horrible hallitosis and he brished his teeth like twice a day and then he would gargle with listerine and hold in in his mouth for like 10 mins and still his mouth smelled like gym socks! Thats is why I never complained that he didn't kiss me. LOL I didn't even want him talkin in my direction! LOL She said he probably needed a deep cleaning to scrape the crud from below his gums that the brush can't reach. And she also said that when people have that problem that mouthwash usually just makes it worse, which in his case was very true.

Re: Getting rid of bad breath....

Some people have an illness call Halitosis (may not be correct spelling) and some have stomach problems that I hear causes bad breath. Trust me there was an older man that sat across from me when I worked at the bank and believe me his breath smelled like he had swallowed a dead dog. I swear when he talked to me I felt faintish. It got so bad that I had to move my seat and I felt bad because he was called into the Vp's office about the issue...true story! I hope they find a cure soon...lol

Thumbs up Re: Getting rid of bad breath....

Whether you call it bad breath or halitosis, it’s an unpleasant condition that’s cause for embar****ment. Some people with bad breath aren’t even aware there’s a problem. If you’re concerned about bad breath, see your dentist. He or she can help identify the cause and, if it’s due to an oral condition, develop a treatment plan to help eliminate it.

What you eat affects the air you exhale. Certain foods, such as garlic and onions, contribute to objectionable breath odor. Once the food is absorbed into the bloodstream, it is transferred to the lungs, where it is expelled. Brushing, flossing and mouthwash will only mask the odor temporarily. Odors continue until the body eliminates the food. Dieters may develop unpleasant breath from infrequent eating.

If you don't brush and floss daily, particles of food remain in the mouth, collecting bacteria, which can cause bad breath. Food that collects between the teeth, on the tongue and around the gums can rot, leaving an unpleasant odor.

Bad breath can also be caused by dry mouth (xerostomia), which occurs when the flow of saliva decreases. Saliva is necessary to cleanse the mouth and remove particles that may cause odor. Dry mouth may be caused by various medications, salivary gland problems or continuously breathing through the mouth. If you suffer from dry mouth, your dentist may prescribe anartificial saliva, or suggest using sugarless candy and increasing your fluid intake.

Tobacco products cause bad breath. If you use tobacco, ask your dentist for tips on kicking the habit.

Bad breath may be the sign of a medical disorder, such as a local infection in the respiratory tract, chronic sinusitis, postnasal drip, chronic bronchitis, diabetes, gastrointestinal disturbance, liver or kidney ailment. If your dentist determines that your mouth is healthy, you may be referred to your family doctor or a specialist to determine the cause of bad breath.

Maintaining good oral health is essential to reducing bad breath. Schedule regular dental visits for a professional cleaning and checkup. If you think you have constant bad breath, keep a log of the foods you eat and make a list of medications you take. Some medications may play a role in creating mouth odors. Let your dentist know if you've had any surgery or illness since your last appointment.

Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste to remove food debris and plaque. Brush your tongue, too. Once a day, use floss or an interdental cleaner to clean between teeth.

Mouthwashes are generally cosmetic and do not have a long-lasting effect on bad breath. If you must constantly use a breath freshener to hide unpleasant mouth odor, see your dentist. If you need extra help in controlling plaque, your dentist may recommend using a special antimicrobial mouth rinse. A fluoride mouth rinse, used along with brushing and flossing, can help prevent tooth decay.
