Why is morning breath bad?

Saliva plays a great role in helping to rid the mouth of some bacteria. Chemically, it contains an enzyme called lysozyme which helps to clean bacteria; physically, saliva helps to flush your mouth and carries some bacteria to your stomach where they are killed off by gastric acid. While you sleep, you produce far less saliva. This allows for the bacteria that cause bad breath to reproduce in your mouth. So in the morning you wake up with bad breath.

As far as I know the foods that cause bad breath are foods that contain smelly compounds, such as garlic, etc. We also know that when people diet that their breath does contain compounds (by product of fat metobolism) that smell, these are called ketones. However, most bad breath comes from the bacteria that grow on the top of the tongue. In order to control bad breath these bacteria must be removed. Mints, gums, mouthwash just covers up bad breath for a short time. It is like trying to get rid of body odor by using perfume. Good orall hygiene includes brushing and flossing the teeth and then cleaning the tongue with a high quality tongue cleaner. Use one that is both a brush and a scraper so the bacteria that is in the deep indentations of the tongue will be removed.

If your boyfriend has really bad breath should you tell him or leave it alone?

It is better to understand the cause of bad breath before you start telling someone else what to do about it. The majority of bad breath is caused by bacteria that live on the top of the tongue. These bacteria produce a foul smelling substance - that is bad breath. Sometimes you can see this bacteria by looking for some "white stuff" on the top of the tongue, especially in the back of the tongue. This must be removed if you are going to cure bad breath. Mints and gum just cover up the bad breath because they do not kill the bacteria. After you brush your teeth you should then clean your tongue with a high quality tongue cleaner. I use OraBrush because it is both a brush and a scraper. It will reach into the deep indentations of the tongue surface and remove the bacteria.
