Stop Bad Breath, Halitosis
Posted: December 7, 2009
Bad breath plagues everyone from time to time. In order to treat bad breath, one must know what is causing it. The cause determines the targeted therapy for halitosis. Sometimes food can cause bad breath (i.e. foods such as garlic, onions, cumin and curry). Food that becomes stuck in the oral cavity and lodged between teeth can definitely cause foul smells. Poor dental health like tooth decay, a lack of oral cleanliness and periodontal diseases can all contribute to the bacteria that causes bad breath. These bacteria build up between the teeth and omit foul odors. It is important to practice good oral hygiene by brushing teeth regularly and using floss and oral rinse after eating. Also, one should take trips to the dentist at least twice a year. Morning breath is extremely common among humans because some people have their mouths open while sleeping, which dries the tongue, gum, and cheek tissues. Saliva, which normally flows through the mouth during waking hours, cleans up dead cells. When one is sleeping, this does not happen, thus creating halitosis. Underlying illnesses can frequently cause bad breath, like diabetes, liver issues, lung sicknesses, kidney failure, lingering acid backwash, and metabolism problems. If you have any abnormal symptoms, you should get checked out by a doctor.
