Drinking milk can even help deodorize some offensive breath odors. Avoid sugary drinks!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t drink too much coffee.\u00a0<\/strong>It may be tasty, but coffee is a tough smell to get off the back of your tongue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t smoke or use other\u00a0tobacco\u00a0products.<\/strong>\u00a0Cigarettes, pipes, and snuff can foul your breath. Smoking\u00a0gives people horrible breath!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cut back on alcohol.<\/strong>\u00a0Alcohol can lead to a\u00a0dry mouth. Too much beer, wine, and hard liquor can make your breath reek for up to eight to 10 hours after you finish drinking.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chew sugarless gum.<\/strong>\u00a0Doing so 20 minutes after a meal can help with\u00a0saliva\u00a0flow.
