Bad Breath Treatment
It's official! bad breath really does stink but your breath
doesn't have to smell bad.
Bad breath, also known by the medical term halitosis, is often caused by inadequate oral hygiene. However it's not the only cause, with other possibilities including:
- Dental caries
- Nutrition
- Infected gums
- Inadequate diet
- Diabetes
- Smoking
- Alcohol abuse
The reason we often wake up in the morning with bad breath is because our mouths tend to dry out. A good quantity of saliva is necessary to wash your mouth free of the bacteria that cause bad breath.
So if you have bad breath, what can you do to eradicate it?
- Avoid using condiments on your food, as the smell can last for hours.
- Make sure you gargle regularly with a quality mouthwash
- Hydrate your body. Drink lots of water.
- Keep your mouth clean. Brush and floss daily and visit your dentist regularly
- Follow a green diet
If you find that despite all your best efforts the bad breath persists, then it's a good idea to consult with your dentist. We offer Fresh breath treatments that may be right for you.
