the reason that they say eat yogurt is because the bacteria that cause bad breath living within your GI tract can be tamed by the bacteria (good bacteria) in yogurt. It doesn’t hurt to try it. funny enough i have noticed my breath getting (not so good!) and realized i didn’t eat nearly as much yogurt as i used to. as long as you have got the basics down. brushing of course, and flossing to clear the bacteria from between your teeth. trying yogurt won’t hurt. Also, try tongue cleaners, they are a bit more gentle than scrubbing your tongue and they also are made especially to clean your tongue. I really hope this helps.

Definately use a tongue cleaner! Most of the bacteria in your mouth is on your tongue! Also, a good mouthwash to try is Crest prohealth. It is alcohol free and you can use it as often as you like. You could have other things going on in your mouth causing bad breath (decay, periodontal disease). Don’t be embarrassed to ask your dentist about your bad breath!! They answer questions like this every day!! No matter how awful you think your oral health is…..trust me….your dentist has seen it all. Your mouth will not shock your dentist! He/she is used to seeing all types of patients in all types of conditions. Hope this helps!
