Dating and Bad Breath – Expert Tips to Stay Fresh & Confident (23/02/25)

Top Tips for Fresh Breath on a Date

If you want to ensure fresh breath on your next romantic outing, follow these tips:

Brush, Floss and Use ProFresh Mouthwash

Brushing twice a day and flossing removes food particles and bacteria that cause halitosis. Using an alcohol-free mouthwash like ProFresh can give long-lasting freshness.

Stay Hydrated

Be careful beforehand and whilst on the date as even non-alcoholic drinks like fresh orange juice’s high acidity can temporarily alter your mouth’s pH balance, dairy products like milk may leave residues that promote bacterial growth, potentially contributing to bad breath. Drink plenty of water during the day and before your date to keep your mouth moist and wash away bacteria. Avoid excessive coffee or alcohol, as they can dry out your mouth and worsen bad breath. On the night if you are drinking alcohol, try and have a glass of water between drinks.

Choose Breath-Friendly Foods

Before your date, opt for foods that promote fresh breath. Crunchy fruits and vegetables like apples, carrots, and celery help remove plaque buildup naturally. Avoid pungent foods like garlic or strong cheeses before an important night out (on and on the night too!).

Chew Sugar-Free Gum

Chewing gum stimulates saliva production, which helps wash away bacteria. Look for sugar-free options with xylitol, known to reduce bacteria in the mouth.

Carry a Fresh Breath Kit

A small pack of sugar-free mints, a ProFresh Mini Spray Bottle, or even a mini toothbrush can be a lifesaver before a date. Freshening up right before meeting (and during) your date can boost your confidence.

When to Seek Professional Help

If you suffer from chronic bad breath despite good oral hygiene, it may be time to visit a dentist or try using a clinically proven bad breath solution like ProFresh Mouthwash every day to keep on top of the issue. Professional treatments can identify and address any underlying dental or medical conditions causing persistent halitosis.
