Floss 〰️
I heard someone say that not flossing your teeth is like not wiping after going number 2, and I can't unhear it. Floss your teeth!!
After you Floss, Smell it and if it sinks that's what your breath smells like 🫣. Start flossing daily.

Tongue Scraping 👅
Again, Tiktok told me about this and I can't go back. Brushing your tongue is not enough. Once you see what you scrape off your tongue you will understand what I'm saying.
Here are some options from Amazon

This is the tongue scraper I use. If you gag easily try humming while you do it.

Oil Pulling 🥥
This is a natural way to whiten your teeth. I like the small hint of coconut and mint while swishing around.
This takes some getting used to but you learn to love it. Natural way to whiten teeth. You just wish this around in your mouth for a couple minutes before brushing.
Shop All Pulling Oils
Any organic coconut oil will work but u do prefer the one with a hint of mint instead of no flavor.

Mouthwash ✳️
Did you know you are supposed to use this before brushing???
I love that these have no alcohol so it's not burning my mouth but it makes my breath fresh before brushing. Tons of different flavors and targets. Even have a kid version.

I love the non toxic option with fluoride but if I'm traveling I have my go tos.
I go back and forth between Peppermint and spearmint. They are both good.
