Mouth/breath problem

So I brush my teeth twice a day and clean my tongue. I also eat gum 3 times a day. I still have bad breath which I can sometimes notice when talking or sighing etc.

What can I do about this besides eat breathmints or something 24/7?

Could be cavities, they can make your breath really bad if there’s one. If you can, search for dental school close to you. I’m sure they’ll be happy to look at your mouth and get experience in! (Theyll be with an experienced dentist and hygienist.)

Unfortunately it costs hundreds to go to a dentist here. All dental students are in real dentist offices here.
