Q How to avoid bad breathe. So everyone is always complaining to me about my best friends bad breath.. And i started wondering if my breath stinks too, and now im obsessing over bad breath, i dont drink water and i hate chewing gum, but if i start drinking water and chewing sugar free gum is it going to prevent bad breath?
Some simple steps will help avoid bad breath. Brush twice a day- thoroughly. Clean your tongue. Do not forget a mouthwash. Rinse your mouth after every meal. Avoid or restrict strong smelling foods such as garlic, raw onions, poultry etc. You need not start chewing sugar free gum but definitely make it a point to have those 8 glasses of water. Visit a dentist every 6 months for a dental check-up - caries, plaque buildup etc lead to a bad breath. Eating raw vegetables, apples etc help cleanse the teeth, however they must be had whole and unprocessed. Cut back on alcohol, smoking and coffee. Follow these guidelines, and you need not obsess over bad breath.
