Do you worry about bad breath?

[snuggleycutejc]

I always have asked my kids if I smell bad tell me! Can you tell if you have bad breath? When I eat onions, garlic, other foods...I say you eat these with me lol. I always use mouthwash. I use mints. I brush my teeth, but still! WELL ANYWAYS, Today 8/6/2016 is National Fresh Breath Day! Have a gr8 day

Well keep in mind that eat onions, garlic can make your breath smell? Also other people can smell it better than you can especially if it's on your breath and smell of onions and garlic can come out of your pores too. You won't be able to smell if your use to the smell either useless it's on your clothes. It's also hard to get off your breath. Try waiting a few hours to see if the smell wore out or trying chewing strong smelling gum like peppermint. Olives can make your breath smell as well. Does this help?

If you eat garlic it generally comes out of your pores as well... it may not just be your breath that smells.   

Cheers to National Fresh Breath Day!  Hopefully, everyday is fresh breath day...

Garlic is a hangin' on killer for good breath or sometimes body odor as well. Don't eat it when you're going to be with someone else who is not eating the same thing. 

You can try the teeth brushing, mouthwash, drink lots of water route, etc., but I don't think it will be effective enough if you're concerned about the smell.

ha!  We keep an eye on it.  My hubby is extremely outrageous when it comes to bad breath while he is working.  He announces it at meetings and everyone just thinks he joking haha.

I brush twice a day and always, alwayssss keep mints in my purse just in case.  A good way to see if your breath stinks is to breath out through your mouth onto the back of your hand in close range, wait a second or two then smell your hand.  If you don't smell anything bad you're good to go, but if your breath smells then you'll smell it on your hand.

i am sometimes so i brush three times a day just to keep it under control

[Segun15]

[bigfoot951]

I can tell sometimes if I eat something like you described.  I really don't worry about it though.

[countrygirl12]

No I do not.  I wish one of my co-workers did though.  He will come sit with me at lunch and I swear I just want to tell him to please not breath on me.

No, I don't worry about bad breath unless I just woke up (morning breath) or if I've eaten onions or garlic. I make sure to carry mints for those occasions and I brush my tongue every time I brush my teeth (they say the tongue carries the most bad breath causing bacteria).

depends if im close to someone i guess

[sherryinutah]

I live alone and good health is a priority.  Garlic and onions are both very healthy foods so who do I need to impress?

Just kidding.  If I plan to socialize I think ahead.  I also buy altoids and gum.

If you have bad breath, you should be able to smell and know you have bad breath.
