Pure sugar cures my bad breath, but I'm afraid of gum disease

[knives]

When I put one spoon of sugar below my tongue my bad breath is cured, but this only works for 2 hours or so...

But I'm afraid of gum disease, gingivitis, plaque and all those spooopy diseases, do you think that a rinse with water after having sugar is enough?

I would rinse with something alkaline, like milk and you should be fine. Those "spoopy diseases" are only going to be an issue for someone who isn't getting adequate nutrition. So make sure the rest of your diet includes raw carrots to aid liver function, enough sugar and enough protein from healthy sources.
