    My x wife had terrible breath..I think she needs to go and have a surgery for bad breath. I have noticed others as well, it isn't pretty having someone in your face with bad breath..I brush twice in the am and before sleep..no complaints about me...Plus, the brushing feeling after a good mouth, touge, and roof of mouth is fabu.....M

    Post nasal drip, decaying teeth, diet, diabetes, and a variety of health issues cause bad breath. If you cannot get rid of it, seek the advice of your physician. It may be a medical condition that can be cured.

    Green tea has those catechins that prevent the growth of bacteria that causes tooth decay and the formation of plaque all with tooth strengthening fluoride. Actually green tea can also help fight the bacteria that cause halitosis. I found the best Japanese green tea at www.sakurateahouse.com
