The Bad Breath Blog

There is a wealth of bad breath treatments available on the market, some effective and others less-than-productive. With so many routes to choose on the road to good oral
well-being, it is easy to get lost. Fortunately, we at TheraBreath are always willing to lay out a straightforward set of instructions for becoming dentally health and halitosis-free.

In the name of simplicity, here is a quick review of effective bad breath treatments.

- Brush your teeth. Sure, it may come as a given that you should try to keep your pearly whites clean, but many people take their dental health for granted. The same bacteria that contribute to tooth decay and cavities also emit many of the odor molecules associated with bad breath. By  brushing, you can kill two birds with one stone.

- Floss. The tartar that gets stuck between your teeth gives off a foul smell, especially if left to fester for months or even years. Using a fine strand of waxed string or dental tape can lift this gunk out from its hiding places. Don’t forget to floss all the way down under your gums!

- Scrape your tongue. It may sound disgusting, but the revulsion you feel reflects poorly on the state of your tongue, not on the scraper itself. Besides being an integral part of your digestive system, your tongue is home to billions of halitosis-causing microbes. It also carries several grams of dead cells and decaying proteins at any one time. Unless you’re comfortable treating your tongue like an ongoing bacteriological experiment, consider investing in a specialty tongue scraper.

Ribbons and Pearls has posted her TheraBreath review. In it, she discusses how much of a priority it is for her to keep her teeth white. “I do a lot of things to keep my teeth white, always have and I’ve always had people tell me how white they were. I smoke too! A couple of months ago, I found it much harder to keep my pretty white teeth. I don’t know what happened, but they just weren’t whitening like they used to.” Did our TheraBreath toothpaste and oral rinse help her? You’ll have to go here to find out. She also has medications that cause severe dry mouth. “…The meds I was prescribed a year ago after surgery stop your sweat glands and mouth from producing practically anything! That means, super dry mouth, but the good thing is I don’t have to worry about arm pit stains! When I went to the pharmacy to pick up my first  prescription of the meds they told me not to even bother taking it until I had water. I can’t even leave the house without a drink or I’ll end up with cotton mouth.” Did our Mouth Wetting Lozenges come to the rescue? Pay Ribbons and Pearls a visit and enter her giveaway too.

Busy “East Coaster turned Texan SHAM” has posted her review on our TheraBreath products on her blog Yankee Texan Mom. She is giving her full opinion of our  mouthwash, oral rinse and mouth wetting lozenges. “My husband I both tried this product [TheraBreath toothpaste].  To be honest, I had to adjust to this toothpaste.  As a person who has used Crest her entire life, I am used to a lot of ‘foam’ when I brush my teeth.” Did our toothpaste turn her off to all of our products? Visit here to find out. See which one she liked the best and what her and her husband thought of the rest of our products.

Riah of Joan & Riah’s Reviews and Giveaways has posted her review and giveaway for our TheraBrite Whitening products. Riah talks about her own background with her teeth. “Now for some background on my teeth, I was a teenager once upon a time, believe it or not… lol And back in those ancient times we did have a few topical treatments, but mostly our pimples, yes my pimples were treated with antibiotics. Well antibiotics stain your teeth and stain them bad, and it’s embarrassing… now these products don’t claim to even touch teeth like mine with ages upon ages of antibiotics causing those stains, but who could blame a girl for trying?” Were we able to help her whiten her teeth effectively in the comfort of her own home?

Thrifty and Frugal by Debbie is back for her second TheraBreath review and  giveaway. This time around, she’s reviewed our new Multi Symptom Probiotics. Debbie opens up about her youngest child’s battles… “I’ve done a discussion about my poor youngest’s teeth issues that she was born with, during my last TheraBreath review, and how badly this has affected her life, her self-esteem, and so much more on so many levels.  Tweens and teens are so impressionable, and are at a delicate time in their young lives with the self-esteem thing, especially girls (although, boys may have it bad too, I don’t know, as I only have girls).  And having bad breath doesn’t help with any of it that at all.  Well, first off, she LOVES TheraBreath’s lozenges.  I can’t tell you how many boxes I’ve stocked up on for her, and since the teachers consider them ‘mints’ and not cough drops or medicine, they let her have them in class, which helps her a lot.” Is our new probiotic a help to her daughter? Click here to find out and to get the full details on her thoughts of our products. She’s also hosting a giveaway for a box of our lozenges, so make sure to pay Debbie a visit.

Fabulous Finds by November Girl xoxo has posted her review and giveaway of our three top products: TheraBreath toothpaste, oral rinse and mouth wetting lozenges. Go here to find out what she thought and enter her chance to win some TheraBreath products of your own. This busy blogger has tested out our products for a week. She talks about what she liked about our mints: “I really liked the gentle mint flavor, nothing about these products overwhelmed me. I didn’t have the feeling like I was rinsing my mouth with razor blades like most traditional mouthwashes I’ve used. I really love the mouth wetting lozenges a lot. I found these little mints to be my favorite product by far. I find myself using these little mints often throughout the day.” Did she like the rest of our products as much? You’ll have to visit her blog to find out.

In Evoluchun’s Miscellaneous’s TheraBreath review and giveaway, Danyale writes honestly about her thoughts before trying out products. “I really wasn’t sure what to expect from this although I did get it more for my mom than me due to I actually produce too much saliva so my mouth is hardly ever dry. Anyways my mom and my husband used these products and so did I so I could give you several points of view.” Three testers in one review! This has got to be good! Stop by here and see what they all thought, plus enter her TheraBreath giveaway for a chance to win some TheraBreath products of your very own.

Cristine Struble has posted a TheraBreath review in the Naperville Frugal Family Examiner. You can read it here. Cristine discusses how she uses mints to make sure her breath is fresh, but the mints themselves are a whole other issue. “But my biggest problem with breath mints is the flavor. I have digestive issues and mint flavoring is extremely hard on my stomach. When faced with no other choice, I’ll use the mint flavored products, but it doesn’t make me feel good. I’m always on the lookout for products that are extremely effective but don’t have that strong mint flavor.” We’ll she’s in luck because our TheraBreath oral rinse and toothpaste have very mild, natural flavors. But did she like our mouth wetting lozenges? Click on the link above to find out.

Cristine didn’t just post one, but TWO reviews for our TheraBreath products. But this time, she’s posted it on her own blog More 4 Mom’s Buck and she’s doing a giveaway too! Want to enter? Of course you do! Go here to enter and to read her complete review and giveaway.
