Bad Breath / Halitosis
Jamesh

 
Bad breath is another term for the medical condition halitosis. Bad breath is a very common problem and there are many different causes. The condition is normally caused by the bacteria that reside in the patient’s mouth. Bad breath is also caused by dry mouth (xerostomia), which happens when the flow of saliva drops. In some instances, bad breath is the outcome of just a dirty mouth. The unfortunate side of bad breath is that you cannot usually smell it yourself.

The term halitosis was originally 'coined' by the Listerine company a long time ago. In the 1920’s, i think it was. A lot of folk will experience a certain degree of halitosis at some time in their lives. A dental examination is a good idea for normal instances of halitosis, as only a qualified dentist or possibly a doctor can definitely tell you that you have halitosis. There is a good chance that either you, or someone in your family, suffers from halitosis (chronic bad breath).

If you do not brush and floss on a regular basis, bits of food can stay in your mouth. You then collect bacteria, which can then be the cause bad breath. The great evil which is smoking can also be a major reason for bad breath. If you wear dentures just make sure they are always fresh and clean, and avoid the plaque build-up on them that can cause bad breath. Avoid eating any foods that cause you to have bad breath. I am sure you know which foods I am talking about. On occasion, tonsillitis can also cause bad breath.

For a long time humans have been looking for a remedy for bad breath. And many people have found one. Black tea is a strong remedy against bad breath. One home remedy is to dissolve baking soda in water and cleanse the tongue with this. Another good remedy for bad breath is avocado, which is far better than any mouth lotion or remedies for this condition. Another simple remedy for bad breath, which you probably never considered, is just drink water.

Bad Breath is an embarrassing problem. Bad breath is also a taboo subject to most people. The good news is chronic bad breath {halitosis} is a really treatable condition. Just remember nearly all cases of bad breath are caused by a problem of some type in the mouth.
