• I brush my teeth 2x a day, why do I still have bad breath?

I have no broken teeth, and I believe I have no cavities, but even if I brush my teeth twice a day I still have bad breath? What could this be?

Not brushing the very back of your tongue can cause this as this is where the sulfur emitting bacteria hide.
