Gargle The Pristine Way For Great Results
Why all the Fuss about gargling?
Applying capable ingredients to where they can be most effective is vital to successfully changing your breath. We need to reach the primary source of the problem. The Pristine Gargling Method works because it is precise in delivering products to where they can actually do their job. We are targeting the far back of the tongue (some of which you can’t even see) and deep into the throat (also partially out of sight). See Bad Breath Science > to understand why the areas we are focusing on make so much sense.
Gargling according to our copyrighted instructions and illustrations is critical to the success of the Pristine Breath Care System. A casual gargling effort may deliver only mediocre results.
Targeted Gargling is a foundation to our Breath Improvement System
Here is how we do it
Gargle by tilting your head back and allowing a small amount of liquid to sit in the throat. Air is then released from the lungs, causing the liquid to bubble and undulate throughout the throat and mouth region. Don’t use more than 1/8 oz, that’s two pumps with our bottles.
Gargling the Pristine Way involves alternating between two specific techniques while making particular sounds, AAAHHH and OOOOOO. Images and details are below. It works well to occasionally tip your head down and allow the liquid to fall into your mouth so that a breath of air can be taken through the nose, then tilting back again and resuming the alternating gargles. The amount of time for each gargling effort will be either one minute or thirty seconds, depending on whether you are Cleansing or Maintaining. Explanation is below. It might be best to try this with water first, before using the rinses. A little practice makes things easier.

Gargle 1:
The “AAAHHHHH” sound.
The rear of the tongue is best reached by sticking it way out and making the “AAAHHHHH” sound. Pretend a doctor is checking your tonsils.
Gargle 2:
The “OOOOOOOO” sound.
The deep part of the throat is best reached by relaxing the tongue, letting it fall back loosely and making the “OOOOOOOO” sound. A low O, like the start of our national anthem, “Oh say can you see.”
It works well to alternate between the two sounds with occasional mouth swishing when a breath of air is taken through the nose.

This breath changing system includes three rinses. They are first used in sequence as a 3-day Cleanse that requires a little effort. After that a simple once-Daily Maintenance routine is all that is needed. It takes only one minute a day.
Start With A Cleanse
An Initial Cleanse is done for 3 days. The process is performed twice a day (AM and PM) and takes about 3 minutes each time.
Step 1. Gargle two pumps (1/8 oz.) of Bottle 1 (Neutralizer) for 60 seconds each morning and night. It may taste metallic or acidic, but it works well.
Step 2. Gargle two pumps of Bottle 2 (Cleanser) for 60 seconds each morning and night. It may foam a little and has a poor taste but is an important part of the process.
Step 3. Shake Bottle 3 (Refresher) gently before use. Gargle two pumps for 60 seconds each morning and night. It tingles of essential oils and has a refreshing aftertaste that lingers.
Most people notice a welcome change after the 3 day cleanse.
Daily Maintenance
Following the 3-day cleanse, sustain your improved breath by performing maintenance once a day. It takes about one minute. You may prefer using it first thing in the morning, as a mid-afternoon refresher, or right before bed.
Step 1. Combine one pump of Bottle 1 with one pump of Bottle 2 and gargle for 30 seconds.
Step 2. Shake Bottle 3 gently before use and gargle two pumps for 30 seconds.

We know a couple who gargled together for the first time according to our instructions and ended up spitting all over the bathroom mirror because they were laughing at each other so hard. Our technique is a little different, even possibly amusing.
How do I know if the system is working?
A good indicator for many folks is the loss of a “constant sour taste in the back of the mouth”, others find a sense of cleanliness and freshness that seems to correlate with an improved problem.
If you prefer to self- test, the best method is to use a spoon and scrape the very far back of your tongue and smell it. The difficulty with self-testing is a phenomena called habituation or being nose blind. Your sense of smell has gotten used to a continual odor and takes no notice of it.
The best way to test is to have someone else check your breath for you. Dr. Kline didn’t know that he had developed bad breath until his wife informed him and then didn’t know that he had fixed his problem until she made that pronouncement (after 15 years of trying!). It may be awkward, but if you can ask for honest feedback from someone you trust, it is more accurate than trying to test yourself.
How to have a helper test your breath
Keep your mouth closed while breathing normally for 2 minutes. Then inhale deeply through your nose and hold your breath for 15 seconds. Open your mouth widely and gently exhale from deep in the throat. Your helper’s nose should be about 6 inches away from your mouth. Your helper will be able to give you an accurate assessment of your breath quality. Copyright 2020 by Conceicao M, et al. All rights reserved. This is an open access.
