Amongst those tested in this study included the kind that causes tooth decay. This alone makes green tea a potential bad breath fighter, since oral health problems and bad breath can go hand in hand. The research also concluded that adding green tea to products like toothpaste could create a one-two punch when it comes to bacteria and viruses.
