Are you tired of having bad breath? Is it affecting your life, and making you self-conscious? Put your mind at ease, and get rid of your bad breath. In this article I will show you exactly how to do it.
In order for you to find out how to cure bad breath, you have to understand what causes it first. Bacteria dwells and eats on food remains that are left in your teeth. This creates a foul smell/odor that is known as bad breath. Here are 5 easy steps, and how to cure bad breath:
1) Brush your teeth - and I mean REALLY brush your teeth! Most people only brush their teeth for 0 - 60 seconds. You need to brush them for atleast 1.5-3 minutes to really get that bacteria out (along with all that old food.) Brush those teeth thoroughly!
2) Floss those teeth! - Very few people take the necessary time to floss their teeth. If you don't, you're only cleaning a part of your mouth. All those little gaps between your teeth are a haven for bacteria... Start flossing!
3) Your tongue is a criminal! - Most people don't realize that their tongue is a big reason for causing bad breath. Many odor causing bacteria hide within your tongue, which you don't remove while brushing or flossing. So the answer to this is to clean your tongue with a good tongue cleaner. Go to your local pharmacy, get a tongue cleaner, and start cleaning it!
4) Drink a lot of water - Drinking water keeps your mouth moist, which washes away a lot of the food particles that bacteria loves. Drink more, wash away more, and have less bacteria. A very simple tip, easily overlooked by many people!
5) Go to the dentist: A dentist can easily tell you what's going on in your mouth. If you have the time, go get a dental checkup
