Alright y'all I need advice. I am someone who eats a primarily raw diet *vegetables and fruits not meat, I'm not one of "those" people.* My diet is mostly raw due to some major GI issues, that's not the point - the point is that I do eat raw onion/garlic on a frequent enough basis that I'm having trouble getting the taste out of my mouth despite having good oral hygiene. Unfortunately I am reminded that I too am meat and can be seasoned/marinated despite my best attempts to remove said seasoning. To clarify before people tear me apart in the comments: my routine is as follows (as instructed by my hygienist) 1. Mouth wash Listerine w/alcohol 2. Floss (I promise I'm doing it right) 3. Brush, two and a half minutes with an electric brush and Pro Sensodyne toothpaste 4. Tongue scrape 5. Rinse mouth with mouthwash Listerine w/o alcohol - spit and do not rinse with water. I do wear a retainer and it is soaked and brushed every night. I'm desperate to figure out how to get rid of the taste in my mouth - it haunts me. "Just stop eating raw onion and garlic," thanks but no thanks, I enjoy them too much.
