Breathometer Mint Will Be Able To Tell If You Have Bad Breath

Morning breath unfortunately affects just about everyone, and you probably think a good brushing of your teeth and the rinsing of your mouth will probably help to keep that smelly breath away for the rest of the day. You could be right, but what if there was still some residual smell that you weren’t aware of?

Well thanks to technology, you now have devices like the Breathometer Mint. This isn’t an actual mint per se, but the idea is the same – you pop it into your mouth and the device will be able to measure things like hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan, and hydrogen disulfide to determine if you have bad breath and relay that information to your phone.

This isn’t just for vanity purposes as it has been noted that poor dental hygiene has also been linked to other health issues, such as heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and preterm labor. It will also help the user prevent issues such as tooth decay and gum disease in addition to telling them whether their breath stinks or not.

To top it all off, the Breathometer Mint will also be able to tell if you have been getting enough hydration, and if you haven’t perhaps it’s time for that drink of water. Its creators are currently trying to raise money to fund the project on Indiegogo so if you’d like to help them out, head on over to their website for the details.
