Dental hygienist here. This is long, but is bursting at the seams with info! I will address the issue of whitening first, then the bad smell. Whitening teeth is easy. There are several options: Over-the-counter strips (think Crest or Listerine) is more effective than the rinses. Whitening toothpastes contain abrasive materials designed to help remove the stain, but not "whiten" teeth. In office procedures such as Zoom are very fast, but can leave with some strong sensitivity issues. Moreover, there have been some claims relating to light-activated/laser bleaching systems. Take-home whitening gel your dentist are very effective and safest way to whiten teeth, the dentist takes impressions and makes models of your teeth. Of these, custom trays that fit all the contours and crevices of your teeth are made. The gel placed on trays, and within 7-14 days, you must have a very nice result. The cost varies, but anything over $ 200 for a whitening system is too. Meanwhile, get a good cleaning to remove stains and any calculation of tartar deposits that could be held spot — this could prevent the "laundering" to do their job. In addition, control your intake of dark beverages such as coffee, tea and soft drinks. Drinking with a straw to help keep the stain to a minimum. Think about your teeth, like a white shirt: if you spill something dark in him, wants to wash before the stain sets. The same applies to the teeth: brush the stain before it sets. Easy rule to live, eh? Now to the issue of bad breath. Our mouths are full of all sorts of nasty bugs: bacteria, fungi, viruses, which be. The bacteria, in particular, may release an unpleasant aroma. First, get a good cleaning.

Studies show that toothbrushes Sonicare power as really do a more effective job of removing plaque. Use a tongue scraper. Drink water. Gargle with mouthwash, but watch out for those with high alcohol content such as Listerine — can lead to dryness of the mouth that can contribute to bad odor. Watch what you eat — Are you crazy About evident bad payers of breath such as onions, feta cheese or garlic? Are you taking medications that leave you dry mouth? It may be necessary to treat the symptoms of dry mouth. Does heartburn or acid reflux? These can contribute as well, and may need to be treated. Does sinus / allergy problems? Post-nasal drip is a great cause bad breath. Finally, sometimes the folds around the tonsils or tonsils may contain small "stink bombs" — white balls bacteria and bacterial waste products. You can check this by looking in the mirror and opening — make sure to say "aah" for his soft palate rises and can be seen. Sometimes the cough appears out or even work on them with a cotton swab can work. Best of luck, and do not forget to floss!
