BAD BREATH

CAUSES OF BAD BREATH

Bad breath may occur due to the negative progress of dental health. It can also be considered as an indicator of different health problems. Bad breath may worsen depending on the food consumed and other unhealthy lifestyle habits.

Daily brushing, flossing and mouthwash are very important habits in terms of oral care. Food residues left between the teeth can cause bacteria formation around the gums and tongue, and in this case, bad breath occurs. Persistent bad breath or a bad taste in the mouth may also be an indication of periodontal disease. Bacterial plaque formation on the teeth and toxins that irritate the gums can cause gum disease. If bad breath occurs due to gum disease, it should be treated immediately. Untreated gingival diseases can damage the teeth and jawbone.
