MOD!
I have really bad breath and I don't know what to do about it! My family likes going out, but never has the time to. How could I try to make my breath better with the stuff I have?

MODDDDDDDD??
3rd times the charm?? :S
Anywho, I always brush my tongue, I can't stand not cleaning it. I brush my teeth twice a day, 1 at night and 1 in the morning. I use Cologate..<--is that a good toothpaste brand?? I use to use Crest but it's TOO minty for me, it makes my mouth burn and for the whole morning my mouth is minty! I have to eat some type of food that has a strong scent which takes out the mintyness<--if that's a word?? Will chewing gum actually help?? Sorry I'm soooo curious, skeptic, and always asking for answers!




Hey girlie,

Love Colgate! Chewing gum helps to freshen up when you can't brush your teeth - like after lunch at school. It's not a permanent breath fix, but it can help perk up your mouth for a couple hours! Smile

Your bad breath could be caused by a nasal infection or upset stomach. If it doesn't go away with gum or mints you should ask your dentist or Dr.

MOD!!MOD!!MOD!! I have a breath problem. I brush my teeth in the morning and at night (and also my tongue) but after about an hour it starts smelling bad. I'm in my school choir, and its my very first period of the day, my breath is fine but when I start singing, it starts smelling awful. I always drink water and chew gum to make it better but is there anything I can do to get rid of it?? And is me singing early in the morning connected to my bad breath somehow??




Hey girlie,

Do you floss your teeth? Flossing and using mouthwash can help get rid of bacteria, germs, lost food particles, and other smell-causers in there! Try avoiding cheese and milk in the morning, which can make bad breath seem even worse. Otherwise, you should def describe your habits to your doctor/dentist and ask him/her for professional advice! Smile Nothing to be embarrassed about...I bet they'll be able to help!

MOD! MOD! MOD!
I have bad breath and sensitive teeth, I brush my tongue AND my cheeks, I also brush for about 5 minutes. My breath smells good for about less than an hour then stinks... I'm also not sure if they make senstive flouride toothpaste. Is it possibly because I have a soft bristle brush?




Hey girl, I'd try using mouthwash and following up with breath mints. It's not the brush, it's just that's what happens with eating.

MOD MOD MOD!!! I hate mint. The toothpaste candy canes mints everything! It makes me gag and cough. I can't get over the flavor! I still brush with the "Kids Crest Sparkle Fun" stuff because it tastes good but it doesn't help my breath. I floss and use interdental brushes (I have braces) and drink water! My teeth are still yellow-ish and my breath is smelly. How can I grow to like mint toothpaste? Or is there a different flavor that smells good?

 

Hey girl, if you don't like mint, then don't use it! You could try cinnamon or only slightly flavored toothpaste. When you go shopping, look in the travel aisle and pick a few different kinds to toothpaste to try- that way, if you don't like them, then you can just throw them away.
