How To Tell If You Have Bad Breath 
Howcast Version. This is the Howcast written version of this Wiki Guide. If you can improve it, show us your stuff by editing the latest revision.
Many people suffer from halitophobia: an irrational fear of having bad breath. Here’s a handy way to lay your fears to rest—or confirming it once and for all.
You Will Need
- The fear that you have bad breath
- A spoon
Step 1: Scrape tongue w/ spoon
Take a small spoon and gently and carefully scrape the very back of your tongue.
If you don’t have a spoon, lick the bare part of your wrist, let the saliva dry a few seconds, and sniff.
Step 2: Sniff spoon
Sniff the material that comes off on the spoon. If the odors makes you recoil in horror, it’s time to invest in some serious dental care.
Saliva cleans the mouth and carries away malodorous food particles, so a dry mouth can cause bad breath.
