I have found a cure for bad breath

I asked my dentist what I could do about bad breath, as Listerine only works for about 20 minutes for me, and then my breath goes back to smelling rank. She said to mix H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) with mouthwash and swish/gargle for about 1 minute. I tried it last night and this morning, and My mouth feels NOTICABLY cleaner and my tongue is MUCH more pink and has lots less white stuff on it.

Definitely give it a try if you're suffering (like I was) from stanky breath.

do you brush your tongue?>

 

[zimu]

that'd be quite scary to swallow eh?

 

[loup garou]

I prefer shots of peppermint schnapps.

 

[JoeKing]

Yup, I do, but it didn't seem to help. I still brush it though.

You need products like therabreath I think it is. mouthwashes are always useless, as is cleaning one's teeth for more than a few minutes.

You don't have to worry, even if you did swallow it the low concentration you're using wouldn't kill you. Plus if you use it regularly people have told me you have this bad taste in your mouth for a while. I use a tongue scraper and listerine, it works well enough for me.

 

[randomlinh]

a 1:1 ratio?

 

[Kev]

how can you tell you have bad breath? you can actually smell your own?

I stopped licking the cat's ass, and that cured my halitosis woes.

Lick the back of your hand. Let it air dry and take a whiff.

 

[vi edit]

Not breathing helps.

Have you read that they are using an ingredient in mouthwash to kill germs and stuff on meat and poultry? It's just recently been approved by the FDA....does someone have a link?

Oh, and I just use mouthwash/brush teeth and tongue.

doesn't sound like YOU found anything

btw, for those of you who don't believe jumpr's omniscience, it's on webmd too.

 

[Balt]

What kind of ratio was recommended?

 

[MustangSVT]

chlorine + alcohol and shake up? be sure to keep your mouth shut!
