Avocado can be found in most grocery stores in the fruit section. Try eating more of this fruit and you will see that your bad breath condition will start improving.

Use a soft bristled brush and use back and forth motions on each area of the teeth. You also want to make sure that you brush your tongue good. This is often overlooked by many people, and is one of the main causes of bad breath. The tongue has a lot of bacteria on it that needs to be cleaned. A good tongue scraper can also do really good.

3. When flossing, make sure you use around 15 inches of floss each time, and make sure that it is floss with fluoride. Do not miss any teeth when flossing, and make sure you get every area of every tooth.
