Why bad breath?

Do you suffer from annoying bad breath? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. In this blog post, we look at some common causes of bad breath and share practical tips to get rid of it.

Bacteria in the mouth
Bad breath is often caused by bacteria in the mouth. These bacteria produce sulfur compounds that cause an unpleasant odor.

Gum disease
Inflamed gums and other dental problems can contribute to bad breath.

Food
Some foods, such as garlic and onion, can cause temporary bad breath.

Effective solutions for bad breath:


Regular oral hygiene: Brush your teeth at least twice a day and use dental floss to remove bacteria.

Tongue cleaning: Clean your tongue with a tongue cleaner to remove residual bacteria.

Hydration: Drink plenty of water to prevent dry mouth, which can exacerbate bad breath.

Healthy Diet: Limit foods that cause strong odor and choose a balanced diet.
Visit to the dental hygienist: Visit a dental hygienist regularly for a dental cleaning. Professional dental cleaning not only removes plaque and tartar but also helps prevent inflammation.

With these simple steps, you can effectively address bad breath and enjoy long-lasting fresh breath. Contact us for more advice or professional oral hygiene treatment.
