How I Learned I Had Really Bad Breath

Hello and welcome!

Let me ask you a question. Do you want to know if you have bad breath?

Seriously...

Do you want the raw, unadulterated truth, no matter how much it hurts? Then go ask a child.

My daughter was just 7 years old when she started letting me know whenever I had bad breath. The girl should have taken up boxing because she sure didn't pull any punches! During my teens and into my late twenties, mouth odor wasn’t an issue. I practiced what I thought was “adequate” oral hygiene, i.e., a quick brushing of the teeth every morning and an occasional brushing at night. Any bad breath during that time was situational, the result of eating onions, garlic, or other spicy foods.

My decade as a thirty-something saw an increase in situational bad breath, as well as a worsening of morning breath. But it was when I was in my mid-forties that my darling little daughter decided I needed a wake-up call.

My morning breath was most likely due to a combination of prescription medicine and those wonderful chemical changes which occur with aging. Being diagnosed as having Sleep Apnea and starting to use a CPAP machine didn't help either.

Whatever the reason, when I heard those words, "Daddy, your breath smells bad," I was floored. I’d been around some people whose breath was so bad that I just couldn't get away from them fast enough. It never occurred to me that one day I might be one of them.

Once I realized that I needed to do something, I began searching desperately, not just for answers, but for solutions.

This site is all about the results of that search. I found what works for me, and it's my sincere hope that within the pages of this site, you'll find the solution that works for you.

By the way, in the process of finding answers to my questions about bad breath, I acquired quite a bit of knowledge on the subject. With the help of a fascinating software product called SBI!, I was able to turn that knowledge into a successful, online business.

Thanks again for visiting. I hope you find what you're looking for. If you have any questions at all please feel free to submit them to our forums, or send them directly to me via the contact page.
