How can I tell if I have bad breath?

Wondering whether you have bad breath or not, is nerve-wracking.

There's a quick test to see if you have bad breath. It is not 100% accurate, but it can often give a good indication.

Here's how you can find out on your own whether you have bad breath:

Step 1: Lick the inside of your wrist with the back part of your tongue (where the bacteria hangs out).

Step 2: Wait a few seconds for your saliva to dry.

Step 3: If your wrist smells bad, your breath probably does too.
