You are reading this right now because you or a loved one suffers from the disease of bad breath… halitosis! And one word you can use to describe the disease which affects 50-80 million Americans is…. Embarrassed! In fact, in many cases, people voice how 'bad breath' has created social and psychological barriers and has even affected personal relationships with their significant other. Constant worry about the smell of halitosis can even have a negative effect how people perform professionally. At work, dates, parties, gatherings, and daily life, bad breath can be devastating to anyone.
So do you have bad breath? Simply worrying about your bad breath or keeping your fears to yourself is not a good solution. Ask honest opinions about your breath from trusted family and friends may be the first step to a 'call to action' against bad breath. To learn what halitosis is and five natural remedies to treat halitosis, please keep reading.
What is Halitosis?
Chronic halitosis is a condition in which a person produces an offensive odor from their oral or nasal regions that they are unable to eliminate with normal oral hygiene techniques, such as brushing, flossing and rinsing. The occasional "morning breath" most people experience is not true halitosis. Bad breath may be affected by many different factors including what you eat, dry mouth, smoking and not brushing/flossing correctly. It can also be a sign of a medical disorder, such as a local infection in the respiratory tract, chronic sinusitis, postnasal drip, chronic bronchitis, diabetes or gastrointestinal disturbance, liver or kidney ailment.
Where does Halitosis come from?
Typically, the bad breath odor comes from activity of bacteria in the mouth, usually from the back part of the tongue. Simply put, microorganisms in the mouth break down proteins and produce foul smelling gasses leaving the victim with 'bad breath'.
Five Main Types of Mouth Odors that contribute to Bad Breath.
1. Periodontal - odor from the crevicular fluid in the periodontal pockets (between teeth)
2. Nasal - odor from nasal cavity
3. Denture- odor emitted from removable dentures (false teeth)
4. Tongue - odor from posterior tongue dorsum (back part of tongue) (most common)
5. Smoker's Breath - odor emitted from habitual smoker
Help is Around the Corner!
Fortunately, you can cure the disease of halitosis by practicing some common oral hygiene procedures. Unfortunately, most people have common 'bad habits' for brushing, flossing and scraping. Could you be making some 'bad breath' mistakes?
Tips for Brushing, Flossing, and Scraping
Brushing your teeth is paramount for fighting bad breath! You should use a soft bristled tooth brush and brush at least twice a day. All surfaces of teeth (outer, inner, and top) need to be brushed back and forth in short one-tooth strokes. Many halitosis sufferers will often not brush long enough.
Flossing should be done with fluoride floss that is about 15 inches long. Make sure you guide floss (back and forth) between teeth and not snap floss between your teeth. Make sure the floss touches all edges of side teeth and gum line. Start a pattern so you do not miss any teeth, including the back of molars.
Scraping the tongue is often a forgotten oral hygiene practice. To scrape the tongue of the 'bad breath causing' bacteria, take regular tooth brush and dip the toothbrush into mouthwash. The toothbrush now can be used to gently brush the back of tongue. You should repeat this step until the yellow/white film is brushed off of tongue.
You can also change your diet to fight halitosis.
A Halitosis-Fighting Diet
1. Water is your Best Friend! Drink as much of it as you can! We would recommend up to 10-12 glasses per day! Dry mouth is linked with bad breath.
2. Finish that Fruit! Fruit is loaded with water, vitamins and minerals! We should have listened to "An apple a day keeps the doctor away".
3. Vegetables! You are not a kid anymore, eat those vegetables. Besides having ample water they will also help your overall health.
4. Lower your Dairy! Eating dairy foods will often produce a foul odor!
5. Lower your Protein! Eating meats will also create a 'bad breath' reaction.
6. Drink Tea NOT Coffee! Compounds found in green or black tea have been found to stop the growth of bacteria that cause bad breath.
7. Sugarless Yogurt! Researchers have found that sugarless yogurt reduces compounds that create bad breath.
Finally, do not stop here! You have finally started on the path to eliminate bad breath for good! This is just the tip of the iceberg for information to fight against halitosis. Remember that educating yourself on halitosis will be the main tool to ridding yourself of bad breath. Imagine no more bad breath, no more awkwardness, no more worrying! Please don't wait another day counting the hours until your next 'bad breath situation'… A guaranteed solution is just clicks away. Check out our research-based site today!
