Causes of bad breath
An unpleasant odor can be caused not only by poor oral hygiene, but also by problems with internal organs such as the lungs, kidneys, gastrointestinal tract, gallbladder or diabetes. In such cases, you should consult a doctor. But the most common reason is lack of hygiene: gum disease, cavities, poorly installed dentures, etc. In this case, you will need to consult a dentist for diagnosis and treatment.
Measures to prevent and eliminate bad breath
While waiting to see a doctor, you can try changing your oral care habits. It is important not to skip brushing your teeth morning and evening. Find a suitable toothbrush and antibacterial toothpaste to help reduce odor-causing bacteria.
Don’t forget to use dental floss to clean between your teeth and a tongue scraper to remove plaque and bacteria. Give your new hygiene habits a few weeks to take effect and repeat the smell test.
If the problem persists after changes to your skincare routine, be sure to consult your doctor for further diagnosis and treatment.
