We often find ourselves stressed, going from the airport straight to our meetings, eating strange food and/or talking to clients for long hours. All of these could result in bad breath.
We have several options to avoid this from happening. We could quickly head for the bathroom and brush our teeth; provided, of course, that we do have that traveller's toothbrush in our bags. We could also chew gum but that wouldn't look right, would it?
The best, imho, option would be to carry a small packet of Oral-B's Brush Ups. It's perfect for travellers because: (1) it is small enough to even carry inside the wallet; (2) individually wrapped so there are no wet-toothbrush stains and; (3) it cleans and freshens breath.
With Brush Ups, you can actually talk all day long and not have to be conscious even if you do invade someone else's personal space.
I travel with these, and they really do work. If my teeth are just feeling a little gritty, or I've eaten something that has the potential to stain (red wine?), they are a great stop gap measure.
They really aren't all that great for freshening the breath, though. For that, I'd still prefer to grab a strong mint or a piece of gum. They will make my whole mouth feel fresher, not just my teeth.
