Make sure: That you are evaluated by a dentist to make sure you have no active decay or periodontal disease. In addition to brushing - i would recommend the following hygiene regimen - mechanical toothbrush 2 x / day (oral b triumph or sonicare); a waterpik (wp-100) every night before you brush; tung brush and gel (to brush your tongue); smart mouth rinse (am and pm). Also consult with your md if you have.

Bad Breath: Bad breath results from several different sources. Even though you brush your teeth you may have an underlying periodontal (gum) infection. There are systemic disorders that can result in bad breath. Start with your dentist to rule out or treat local conditions as needed. If that fails then seek medical attention with a physician.
