Bad Breath cure with help of mouthwash



First impressions are everything now a days. Whether it is turning up for a job interview, going out for a hot date or simply meeting friends, first impressions change the way you are judged by others. Bad breath is one of the main attributes to leaving to a bad impression, along with the body odor.
With bad breath being such a critical element, how do you even know if you have it and is there a cure? Last time I checked it almost impossible to check this in everyday life unless you subject a friend or colleague to testing out your uncertainties.Saying this though, there is one recommended way to check without the risk of losing those you ask to check.

Firstly turn a regular spoon upside down so that the concave section is towards the tongue. Then lightly scrape the spoon from the back of the tongue to the front. Once you have done this, simply smell the tip of the spoon, (at a distance first maybe to avoid what may await you.) I’m sure then I don’t need to tell you what constitutes as good or bad breath.So if you come to the conclusion that you have bad breath, what could have caused this? It does not only happen to those who have avoided regular brushing, in fact most people with bad breath will brush their teeth twice a day.

The simplest explanation for bad breath can be the foods that you have consumed during the day, with the worst being garlic and onion that can leave a pungent smell.Some other reasons for having bad breath involve having what they call dry mouth syndrome, where having a decreased flow of saliva can result in bad breath, and of course smoking or chewing tobacco will not give you that minty fresh taste and smell that most would strive for.Apart from these fairly trivial explanations, Bad breath can also be caused by some medical conditions such as bronchitis and throat infections, which although possible are harder to treat.So if you do fall into the first two categories of bad breath you are in luck, as these can be cured through a few simple steps in your daily routine.




To cure dry mouth the answer is pretty self-explanatory, drink more water! And for cigarettes I’m sorry to say it but you’re going to have to stub them out for good.
A final rule of thumb for maintaining that crisp minty breath you crave is by rinsing for 30 seconds after each meal to dislodge food particles and refresh your mouth. This is best done through using a mouthwash such as Listerine as it comes in a range of flavours and sizes than can be used on the go.

The first step to cure bad breath is through maintaining regular good oral hygiene. This can be done through brushing your teeth, gums and tongue at least twice a day, flossing twice a day and using a good approved brand of mouthwash, Listerine I find works best as it also helps prevent plaque buildup and gum problems.

Through using these techniques stated above, you can conquer bad breath, excel in good oral hygiene and maybe secure that job/hot date that you previously scared away.
