Summary
A real cause of embarrassment in society, bad breath can be explained by different factors. Often linked to a lack of oral hygiene , it is also the consequence of poor diet or inadequate oral care. Different solutions allow you to find fresh breath. Find our tips for freshening the scent of your breath. 😖
Eat a good diet and drink water
To find fresh breath , it is important to monitor your diet. Indeed, certain foods are likely to promote halitosis. These are mainly those rich in garlic, onion or spices. To maintain fresh breath, reduce protein consumption. Exclude tobacco and alcohol from your routine.
Bad breath is sometimes caused by bacteria accumulating in the mouth . It is normally saliva that eliminates these. In order to secrete it optimally, it is important to stay hydrated. Hence the importance of drinking enough water and thus benefit from its many benefits. Without it, your mouth will dry out, which can lead to bad breath. 👄
Adopt good oral hygiene
Good oral hygiene essentially means regular tooth brushing . In fact, in 90% of people suffering from halitosis, this problem is the consequence of poor oral hygiene. In the absence of adequate oral and dental care, bacteria reside in the oral cavity and attack the gums. Generated by meal residue, they feed on proteins from certain foods and lodged in the oral cell. The breakdown of these nutrients by bacteria sometimes produces a bad odor. 🥴
After smoking or drinking alcohol, brush your teeth to remove bad breath. All you need is a manual or electric toothbrush and the right toothpaste. In order to obtain the desired result, the ideal is to obtain products that have already been proven to maintain your teeth and mouth. 🦷
Good tooth brushing
To have fresh breath, brush your teeth well at least twice a day, morning and evening, when you wake up and before going to bed. Morning brushing should precede breakfast and evening brushing should be done after the last meal. 🥗
After your evening oral care , avoid meals and drinks containing sugar or alcohol (especially if your teeth are sensitive to sugar ). You can drink water or mint tea. In fact, the latter is harmless to the tooth. In addition, known for centuries, mint fights effectively against bad breath. Thanks to its antibacterial properties, it eliminates the germs that cause bad mouth odor. In addition, the aromatic scent of mint tea gives freshness to the breath . 🍃
Choosing the right toothpaste
To brush effectively and always keep your breath fresh, it is essential to choose your toothpaste carefully . Make sure that this does not jeopardize the health of your teeth. To brush safely, the ideal is to use a natural toothpaste. ☘️

Make mouthwashes
Sometimes brushing alone is not enough to eliminate all the bacteria infecting the oral environment. For optimal oral and dental cleaning, the ideal is to complete this treatment with a well-chosen mouthwash . 🧪
Indeed, to escape cleaning, certain recalcitrant bacteria take refuge in the oral cavity. Therefore, it is impossible for the toothbrush to remove them. As a result, bad breath persists. This may also be the case if you have a constantly dry mouth (xerostomia).
Mouthwash fights bad breath because it contains antiseptics such as chlorhexidine and hexetidine. Thanks to its liquid nature, it floods the mouth and infiltrates easily into the oral cavity. This allows the antiseptics contained in the product to find stubborn bacteria and destroy them. 🦠
Change your toothbrush (or brush head)
To properly maintain your tooth, your brush must be in good condition . When it deteriorates or the bristle becomes defective, you must either change it or replace the toothbrush head. 😉
So you need to know when to change your brush .
Brushes in good condition: essential for good tooth health
Changing your toothbrush is important if you want to keep your breath fresh. The same brush should not be used for more than three months . How often you change your toothbrush will depend on many factors. The main thing is the wear time of the brush. ⏰
Indeed, as the strands wear out, they tend to retain bacteria. Brushing too vigorously is one of the factors that shortens the wear time of your dental care accessory. Failure to maintain your brush also leads to the retention and proliferation of bacteria responsible for bad breath .
Mistakes to avoid to keep teeth in excellent health
If you change brushes regularly, it is best to avoid poorly made products. The ideal is to use removable models. So instead of buying a new brush every time, you will only have to change the head. This solution is less expensive. In addition, this is one of the big advantages of electric brushes. 😁
At MyVariations , we make it a point of honor to only offer heads of impeccable quality, with flexible soft nylon bristles . Available in packs of three or by automatic delivery thanks to our subscription system, they adapt perfectly to sensitive teeth. Prices are affordable. In addition, the company gives you a significant discount when you take out its brush head subscription.
Perform scaling at your dentist
Scaling refers to the operation of removing tartar present above and below the gum line. It is a delicate treatment, therefore requiring the intervention of a dental surgeon.
Scaling minimizes the risk of a patient contracting certain dental conditions. This is particularly the case for gingivitis, cavities and periodontal disease. Halitosis is one of the consequences of the accumulation of dental plaque and therefore tartar, which must be eliminated urgently ! 🙆♀️
In the absence of a good oral routine , food residues present in the mouth breed microbes. Without rigorous brushing, these accumulate and cover the surface of the teeth until they transform into dental plaque.
If the brush and toothpaste are enough to get rid of dental plaque, tartar puts up more resistance to them. The only solution to get rid of it remains descaling. 😕 Since tartar and dental plaque are of bacterial origin, they can cause bad breath.
Treat cavities
Untreated decay can lead to bad breath . Without adequate treatment, this pathology progresses to higher stages. First, it attacks tooth enamel without causing any particular pain. This is the silent phase. It's impossible for you to suspect it, unless you contact a dentist.
When left untreated, decay affects dentin, which becomes sensitive to heat and cold. It is then the turn of the dental pulp, and the latter becomes painful. The condition continues to spread, causing increasingly intense pain that can be called “ toothache ”. In addition to affecting other dental structures, bacteria makes breath less and less bearable. To detect a cavity in time and prevent it from spreading, the ideal is to make a regular appointment with a dentist. 👩⚕️
