You can take a kitchen spoon and scrape your tongue with it. Seriously. Your tongue is the main cause of bad breath. Lots of build up on it.

ehh,
i would just say carry breath mints with you,
or chew gum.
:]
gum is always tasty.

you may have a tooth that has decay. You should see a dentist soon. When teeth still have odor even after brushing and flossing well it generally means some sort of infection or decay.

Have a dental cleaning every six months. Rinse mouth with salt water several times a day. Listerine is alcohol base and will kill healthy bacteria as well as bad bacteria. Try brushing your tongue with your toothbrush.
Replace toothbrush every 3 months, even if it looks fine.

brush your teeth and tongue often
keep your mouth lubricated (drink water)
most people that have halitosis do not keep enough
lubricant in their mouths and this tends to lead to the bad breath
get a spearmint plant. chew on a leaf just before talking to someone
going on an interview, kissing etc. mostly drink water and brush

I have the same problem. Isn’t it horrible.
I went to the doctors, and was told to try ‘beano’. I keep forget to take it though. So, I also carry around gum. I also heard ‘breath asure’ was good. Still trying to track it down though.

Rinsing your mouth with lime juice mixed with water prevents bad breath. It’s a simple home remedy that works.

you need to determine the cause of your bad breath condition. most bad breath problems are caused by bad bacteria in the mouth, eating garlicky foods, gum disease and stomach related problems.
it is best to keep an eye on good oral health and have a good program of daily dental hygiene and use only natural oral care products. keep mouth well salivated and drink adequate amount of water. better refrain from activities or behaviors that can cause dry mouth like smoking and alcohol intake.
speak with your dentist to help you identify the problems in your mouth that might be causing your bad breath.
