I know a lot of you guys have bad breath, don't lie. Here are some simple ways to prevent it.

First off all, don't chew gum. My #1 advice for you. Gum just makes your breath worse. And sir, I don't care if it's Eclipse or Juicy Fruit or whatever, they do not work!!!!

Brush your TONGUE more than you teeth. Yes, brushing your teeth is important too but if you want a nice, fresh breath, you must brush your tongue. If your afraid of the gag kicking in, then squeeze your nose balls! Shit ... well that's my advice of the day. Mouthwashing after is a big bonus, but do not chew gum. Buh Bye!

you should be an hygienist

Somehow I already knew these tips. Thanks anyways.

your wrong! gum always makes my breath smell better, way better, and it cleans and stuff too! you didnt even do ur rsearch!

^Where's the proof?

Altoids are good too

SO ORBIT GUM LIES!?!?!?!

It makes mine better, too.

Brushing=Good Breath+Gum=Great Breath!

Listerine is all I need.

Mints are the best way to freshen breath

Mints and altoids make my breath 3 times worse. I just have to eat for my breath to smell good.

Sugar makes one's breath worse. If you get a mint that has low sugar or is sugar free, it will not make your breath worse.

I always chew sugar free gum, but i didn't know that. Some people seem to think its gross.

ummm. dood, ive had gum before, hav u? like i have a big e pack for the spearmint gum and that always makes my breath good before interviews and stuff and especially for a while like when im chewing it and stuff, always good, never bad. your theory has been proven wrong...

once you've chewed for too long, all that flavoring is gone and the gum base is left, holy crap, that thing makes your breath horrible. at least it feels like it does.

What the heck is up with this thread...Only eating food makes my breath smell better.

Mouthwash.

Listerine smells too much like alcohol. I can't tell if people are spiking their coffee or overdoing the mouthwash.

I basically just brush my teeth, use a decent amount of Listerine, floss a bit, and just chew on minty gum. :/

stop eating shit

you can overdo mouthwash!??!

and it has been scientifically proven that use leads to oral cancer.

this is a gross thread. JUST BRUSH YOUR TEETH PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY AFTER GOING DOWN ON SOMEONE!!

OFT.

I cant stress that enough...

Yeah, brushing your tongue is a good way to eliminate odor in your mouth. Also, if you don't have a toothbrush around at the moment, you could always eat an apple. If you bite into an apple, the crisp fibrous flesh of the apple cleans your teeth and the pectin in the apple gets rid of the bad odor.

Another way is to drink a cup of black tea. It inhibits growth of bacteria that causes bad breath. There are polyphenols in the tea that destroy the bacteria. Green Tea works too, but not as well as the black tea.

Lastly... you could chew on a sprig of parsley or mint.
