Fight bad breath as well as keep your mouth healthy on a daily basis. Brush teeth twice a day. Floss daily. Brush or scrape your tongue. Use a mouth rinse. Visit your dentist. Quit smoking and avoid tobacco products. Wet your whistle. Eat a piece of sugarless candy or chew sugarless gum. Remember, deodorants do not prevent sweating. They mainly mask the smell of the sweat on your skin. Antiperspirants are chemical agents that reduce sweating. Many antiperspirant preparations also contain a deodorant, which helps to mask the smell.
