7 WAYS TO GET RID OF BAD BREATH INSTANTLY

1- Drink plenty of water:

This is a bigger factor than most people realize I think. Drinking caffeinated and/or alcoholic beverages can also dehydrate you and make this worse.

2-Use a tongue scraper daily:

After you do this once and see the filth that gets scraped off you will wonder why everyone doesn't do this. Get one of the metal ones with rubberized handles. (E.g. Dr. Tung). They're about $6.

It will take about a week or two before things really start to get better, but when they do they will be dramatically better.

3- Use a Waterpik daily:

Use a Waterpik daily on your gum line and between your teeth. I like to pour in a capful of mouthwash with the water. 1 or 2 tanks of water per session. A classic Waterpik is about $40.

4- Floss daily:

5- Eat Healthier:

• Minimise heavy sugar/salt/oils in your food.
• If you need caffeine, try unsweetened green or white tea but avoid black tea.
• Eat more vegetables like rhubarb, it's good at killing a number of oral bacteria as are anything that contains a high number of polyphenols such*g as cranberries.

6- Get your teeth cleaned by a dentist at least twice a year:

Many people without insurance skip this, but you can get fairly affordable dental insurance on your own, like Delta Dental, for instance, about 38 bucks/month I think it was. I thought brushing and flossing and scraping my tongue etc, was enough but you really have to get your teeth professionally cleaned otherwise you end up with bone loss in your jaw like I did. And bad breath from plaque beneath the gum line...

7- Eat in the morning:

Your breath can smell bad if stomach acids build up.
