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.
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.
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.

These are excellent teaching videos. I would like to use a couple of them in a presentation. Is that allowed and if so how do I save it to my power point presentation? Thanks.
