First things first: You need to have the cause of your halitosis determined. Is it a dental problem, gum problem, acid reflux, or your diet? Just masking the bad breath for 5 minutes with a "product" will not solve your problem... It will only frustrate you. Have a dental check up and then consult with your physician.. Once the cause of your halitosis is determined, proper advice can be given. All the best..

Not necessarily : It's good you brush twice a day but you need to see a doctor to see wher the bad breath is coming from a periodontist should rule out gum problems and if not that then have your physician rule out stomach or sinus problems as the cause.
