There are a few ways that you can freshen your breath. Brushing your teeth twice a day with toothpaste, flossing your teeth daily, rinsing your mouth with an antiseptic mouthwash, drinking lots of water, and avoiding drinks with high levels of acidity can all help. It is also important to stay away from foods and drinks that contain strong flavors, such as coffee and alcohol, which can lead to bad breath. Additionally, cough drops and lozenges that contain menthol ormint can temporarily mask unpleasant odors from your mouth. Finally, if your breath is particularly poor,consult a dentist, who may suggest treatments such as scaling and root planing to remove bacterialplaque and tartar that is building up on the teeth and gums.
