Tomorrow I’m going to kiss my girlfriend for the first time; but sometimes I have bad breath and she dosen’t know and I feel really embarrassed. Would sucking on a few polos help the bad breath to go away for a bit just before we kiss? Would sugar or non sugar polos be better? Are there any long term cures for bad breath?? Thanks so much for any advice!!!!!xxx:)

i brush my teeth twice a day (morning & night), and i drink about 500 mL of water each day
i floss about once a week LOL and i scrub my tongue every morning and night
my teeth are fairly clean and white, but the thing that REALLY bugs the sh!t out of me is my bad breath
i tried this test, where you lick the back of your hand and sniff the saliva, and my saliva smelled like shit
i’m a self-conscious dude, so it’s really hard to talk to people up close
i always cover my mouth whenever i talk to somebody up close, and they’re like, " why do you always cover your mouth? "

what can i do to get rid of this?! it’s horrible! i’m even afraid to kiss my girlfriend because of this! omg, it sucks so much ; _ ;

thanks in advance, people of yahoo

My dog has REALLY bad breath!We try to brush her teeth and stuff but she just ends up eating the toothpaste.Is there anything i could give her!? PLEASE HELP!!!

I heard Arm and Hammer does. That baking soda is to have white teeth and peroxide is to get rid of all the bacteria in your mouth and tongue. Is this true? I feel like the other toothpaste’s just give you fresh breath for about 5 minutes and that’s it.

Thank you

My friends and father say I have horrible breath. I tried the "licking hand" method, and smelled something, but it wasn’t anything good or bad. The "breathing into your hand and smelling it" doesn’t really work for me either. I brush my teeth after every meal (except lunch, because I am at school then), floss, and use mouthwash. I also brush my tongue with fresh toothpaste. (I use Colgate.) My dad thinks that I have bad breath because I don’t get enough rest so I suffer indigestion. I don’t know if this is true or not, and he says it isn’t something I need to consult a doctor with.
What can I do to tell if I actually have bad breath or not? And why?
If I do, how can I help it???
Also, my mom says my breath is fine, which just adds to the confusion.
Again to all of you; some people say I have horrible breath, some say it is fine.
