I believe you are asking how to stop bad breath.  The best way to rid yourself of bad breath is to practice good oral hygiene by brushing 2-3 times per day and by flossing at least once per day. Also make sure to visit your dentist every 6 months for an exam and cleaning. If you have persistent bad breath this is often a sign of periodontal disease and you should see your dentist for diagnosis and treatment.

Stop smoking would be the most logical explanation.\nTry also using baking soda as a toothpaste. Just add a little bit of water to the baking soda forming a thick paste and scrub away.\nI would be hesitant on doing this on a daily basis because it is very abrasive and can cause enamel wear.\n1 day a week won't kill you though\nAnd don't listen to that girl who put rinse with hydrogen peroxide....\nthat can cause you papillae on your tongue to elongate and cause 'black harry tongue' if used long term.\nHydrogen peroxide is used as a mouth rinse in very rare instances but definitely not for whitening purposes, \nBeware!! don't listen to a secretary!

Best remedy is to visit your dentist. Possible treatments that the dentist will do is cleaning or the so called oral prophylaxis (to elimate calcular deposits which cause bad breath) then restoration or filling of decayed teeth. The dentist may also advise you to use a mouthwash. Any mouthwash available in the market will do. But personally, i prefer using Betadine Oral Antiseptic. Usually after these procedures you'll find an improvement. If after all these you still have bad breath it's best if you consult with a physician for a check up coz you may have an underlying disease which causes bad breath or HALITOSIS.

You could try making a paste with bicarbonate-of-soda and a little water, then applying it to the teeth.  It may not taste too good, and it is harmless.  This product cleans almost everything.

The quickest and only cure that I know of is a good professional cleaning and then ask your hygienist about avoiding the problem in the future.  Regular flossing and brushing with a soft toothbrush is a preventive measure but first you need to clear it up.  Call your dentist for an appointment.

Baking soda is a great remedy for bad breath, because it changes the pH in your mouth and makes it a less friendly environment for many bacteria.\n\nTry the baking soda solution. You can add extra punch to your Water Pik by using a baking soda solution to clean your teeth. You can brush on baking soda with a toothbrush and then rinse with water or use your Water Pik,  What I really recommend is mixing baking soda with warm water, pouring that solution into the Water Pik and using it to irrigate your teeth and mouth.\n\nBrush your tongue. Perhaps the most overlooked way of eliminating bad breath is to brush the top surface of the tongue when you brush your teeth. Although there are many causes of bad breath, usually the odor arises from the surface of the tongue. That's because the tongue is covered with microscopic, hairlike projections that trap and harbor plaque and food.  A daily, gentle brushing (including the top of your tongue) unlodges these odorous particles.\n\nOr give it a wipe. Don't have a toothbrush handy? Not to worry. Simply take a hanky or a piece of gauze and give your tongue a good wiping. Even a quick wipe is good for removing the coating on your tongue that can cause bad breath.\n\nJust about any type of mouthwash will temporarily mask the odors of bad breath--usually for about 20 minutes. But to eliminate the foul smell choose a mouthwash that contains zinc. Zinc has a tendency to do a lot of things to inhibit the production of sulfur compounds that cause bad breath. Zinc mouthwashes don't taste as metallic as copper-containing oral products.

do it the old fashion way brush it after you eat or three times a day morning, noon, and night 365 days per year. if you don't wanna do it that way then go to your dentist and get it whitened. Beware don't use baking soda toothpaste or baking soda though even though it works it takes the enamel off your teeth and that's bad. ask your dentist about it.
