Avoiding sloppy kisses involves techniques for kissing with finesse and maintaining oral hygiene. Sloppy kisses can be unpleasant due to excessive saliva, open-mouthed smooching, or poor breath.
Kissing etiquette dictates that partners should brush their teeth, use mouthwash, and avoid eating strong-smelling foods before engaging in a kiss. Maintaining a closed mouth and controlling saliva helps prevent sloppy kisses. Additionally, learning proper kissing techniques, such as the “French kiss,” can enhance the experience for both partners.
