My girl friend always has bad smelling breath, only happen at night 11:00pm onwards. She will get angry if I told her she smell bad. And she don't like to take chewing gum due to the sugar content. How could I help her to cure her halitosis?

Try the suggestion for garlic tablets or peppermint. They work if the problem is a simple one due to a little excess stomach acid. Suggest that she see her dentist. She may have dental caries (cavities). If her teeth check out fine then she may have a problem with her stomach in which case she needs to be seen by her health care provider. All of this advice applies only if your GF perceives her breath as a problem and is willing to correct it.

OK, so if you check my questions then you will see that I am a freak when it comes to fresh smelling breath and I NEVER well I could say never until about 2 months, ago leave the house without brushing my teeth. Even if it's mid-day and I already brushed. In my mind, being at my house means I have to brush before I leave but anyway, a few months ago I used listerine (no reason inparticular, just doing a little extra dental care) before I went to bed and for 2 days in a row, I got up, got showered and dressed and forgot to brush my teeth. Seriously, my mouth felt so fresh that I just forgot! So my suggestion is get her some Listerine. The blue stuff is the best but they make a Vanilla flavored one now that isn't as strong.
If that doesn't work then dump her. It's really inconsiderate for her to expect you to tolerate her bad breath. Ewww gross, you are suppose to breath in that air that she is breathing out? How can you stand it? Just "Run Away, Run Away!"

Some people just have an overabundance of mouth bacteria that can be taken care of if your girl uses Colgate Total toothpaste. Even better if you can find the mouthwash as well. The problem may not be with her mouth, however. Some people get what smells like bad breath, but it actually originates in their stomachs. There is a pill that can be taken to counteract this. I don't think you need a prescription to get it, just ask your pharmacist.

Oh bad breath is one of the most unbearable things in the world. Maybe to let her know how you feel, you should keep your teeth dirty for some time and kiss her :D

1. Floss (preferable after each meal, to clean your teeth from little bits left inside)
2. Brush (2x/day at least)
3. Mouthwash (have her bring some in her purse & gargle after every meal)
4. Mints. (before each kiss)
5. Check the food she eats. (Too much spices? Garlic? )
6. Tongue Scraper (Tooth brush can't clean tongue good.)
Please suggest politely.

Usually the dentist can help with that too. Just say, "Hey, isn't it time for a check up at the dentist?"

Dump her and find a girl with sweet breath. There are plenty of other women out there.

You knew this from the beginning...
If it wasn't a problem then...why is it now?
I would ask her to see a dentist.
To make it fair, ask her if there is anything about you she would want changed.
If not, then go your separate ways.
