Answers:
Things you can do to stack the odds in your favor:
1 - Ask your dentist or hygienist to show you the proper techniques to brush and floss during your next visit with them. You need the right techniques to do a thorough job.
2 - Make sure you brush during the critical times: Before you go to bed, after each meal.
3 - Don't feed the stinky germs so they won't grow so much. Avoid sugary foods, and that includes mints or sugar-sweetened gum-- Germs that stink grows explosively on sugar. Chew sugarless gum instead.
4 - Have regular dental checkups to make sure you don't have rotten teeth. Stinky germs hide in rotten teeth. A checkup will also catch other problems that might contribute to your situation.
There are other things you can do, but that's what's off the top of my head. Good luck.
