A Breath of Fresh Air

Water dilutes and washes away halitosis-causing bacteria and makes the mouth moist, rendering it inhospitable to those types of bacteria. Eating crunchy fruits and vegetables helps keep your mouth clean by sweeping food particles and plaque from teeth as you eat. Avoid tobacco, coffee and other trigger foods.
Chew sugarless gum after meals - sugar simply feeds existing bacteria. The first step to improving breath is to rule out any medical or dental conditions that could cause halitosis, so a doctor or dentist visit is in order. Also check the medicine cabinet to see if your bad breath might be a side effect of prescription or over-the-counter medications.
