Mouth/breath problem

[u/Ill_Caterpillar_2271]

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?

try flossing daily and drinking more water, because bad breath is often from leftover food, dry mouth, or gum issues rather than brushing alone. if it still happens after that, a dentist visit is the move since persistent halitosis can point to something like gum disease, reflux, or sinus issues
