I have to admit, I am a little worried about having brown teeth in 10 years, so I actually have a whole regimen before going to bed. I first do a quick regular brushing. Then I use a sonic care brush. Then I use Listerine.
Old fashioned, full strength Listerine seems the best for tobacco breath.
I also have a sonic breeze (like a water pik) which honestly, is one of the best things for bad breath. If you use this, do it first before all the rest.
Depending on the day, I use some or all of the above. May seem like overkill, but the whole process (if I do everything) only takes about 6-8 mins. Good luck!

A waterpik makes you realize how ineffective brushing and flossing is when you see all the particles that get flushed out
Rinse your mouth with 50/50 water and peroxide (the 3% solution). Then brush, floss and use Listerine. I do this before bed every night. No complaints about breath and never a bad dental checkup. Then hit the shower and you're good.
When you brush your teeth, be sure to brush your tongue and the top of your mouth between your top teeth. Then use mouthwash. This also saves on oral cancer.Your tongue should be pink. No strange colors.
+1 Some new toothbrushes actually have ridges on the back of the brush for cleaning your tongue.
I must have the most understanding wife ever.... June has never complained. The dentist suggests three times,
but I brush at least twice a day to stave off stains... and after 40 years of it... it's working. I'm with baron
on peroxide.... get the drug store 3% solution. Also with rlunderhill on brushing all over inside.
Use a pleasant underarm deodorant and aftershave. I use Old Spice.
Also some scotch or bourbon before bed.... It helps in several ways.
I usually fire up my pipe in bed, but it's all fresh and new then!

I think the problem is that the smell doesn't just come from the mouth. My girlfriend likes me to take a shower and brush my teeth. Not every night but the good nights are worth it if you catch my drift. :D
I suppose I could always take my teeth out ( I got full set apart from one on the bottom ) and spray them with de-odorant :rofl:
