This is partially true but there are other factors that cause bad breath. Bad breath is also caused by sulfur compounds. There are certain areas in the mouth like in between teeth, top layer of tongue, in the throat and in tonsils where sulfur gets accumulated. Generally when we brush there are many areas in the mouth where the brush doesn’t reach and since these area gets neglected, it encourages bacteria to get accumulated and causes bad odor in the mouth.

Now to help people suffering from bad breath doctors have come up with a spray that is called “ TheraBreath Extinguisher Breath Spray” which is sprayed in the mouth where the brush or mouth wash cannot reach.
