The Breath Thread

07-07-2009, 08:30 AM

So I know that I can't be the only one who's significant other dislikes my breath after smoking a cigar. What does everyone else do to minimize the after effects of cigar smoking? I know that my girlfriend says she can taste the cigar on my breath for almost two days if I don't do anything OTHER than routine brushing.

I use Smartwash!

I started my wife down the cigar slope with me!

Now we both smoke.

I did the same as Jonathan. Mrs. Brew like infused smokes, and I'm grateful to have her in the cave or on the deck with me.

That said, I just brush well and rinse with Listerine before bed. But I still wake up with dragon breath, so I have to ask myself what's the difference?

My wife hates it. I wash my face at the same time I wash my hands and gargle with mouthwash. And she still complains.

Brush teeth then Listerine.

This is the only solution that has my wife's approval is:

MCS

Albertson's, Kroger, Target and Wal-Mart are on the list, but I've never seen it before.

I've looked at all those stores to but haven't found any.

I have tried most everything. And this works like no other. It will eliminate any traces of the cigar in your mouth. But around your mouth and on your clothes/hair will still be a "problem".

Barteur · 07-08-2009, 07:46 PM

Mouth Wash

skullnrose · 07-07-2009, 10:34 AM

Another Thumbs up for Smart Mouth. This stuff really works at least the mint never had the cinnamon.

gnukfu · 07-07-2009, 10:46 AM

Nothing - Lisa doesn't care - I'm such a loveable guy!

the nub · 07-07-2009, 11:31 AM

Peanut butter. Try it. It works. You can brush or use mouthwash after if you like.

MedicCook · 07-07-2009, 11:40 AM

In my last relationship I would have to brush my teeth and take a shower after being out and smoking.

lightning9191 · 07-07-2009, 11:50 AM

I find orange juice helps a lot.

Usually some Eclipse Gum... or brush my teeth and rinse with mouthwash.

I have a friend that uses H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) stright. He claims it's the best. I haven't tried it yet (and probably won't).
