BAD BREATH
(TIME TO SHOUT OUT)
Being up front about bad breath is not easy, it is difficult to tell loved ones, friends, associates and even patients that they suffer from this problem, but 25-65% of the adult population do.
Bad breath originates from the mouth (about 90% of the time) not the stomach as many people believe.
Since bad breath comes from the mouth the dentist should be the first specialist that a worried patient consults with.
WHAT CAUSES BAD BREATH
There can be many causes of bad breath:
- Gum disease
- Tooth decay
- Tongue coating
- Food packing
- Smoking
All of these problems can be diagnosed and treated by your dentist.
Don't be afraid to be up front about bad breath.
