Bad Breath - Is it destroying your confidence?Whilst this may sound like a weird heading to be linking confidence and bad breath together many sufferers of breath problems will know exactly what I mean.
How often have you turned your head slightly when talking to someone to avoid breathing on them? Or had someone comment on how bad your breath smells. It is like being slapped in
face. No body likes it including me. But there is a way to control it or even stop it all together.
In following page you will find out exactly how I overcome bad breath and some of finer details about breath related problems.
What causes Bad Breath?
In most cases bad breath (halitosis) is caused by or related to oral bacteria. The wastes of oral bacteria are actually sulfur compounds and it is usually these compounds that will be cause of your bad breath.
The build up of plaque can also largely contribute to production of oral bacteria. It only takes a layer of .1 to .2 of a millimeter of plaque to provide an environment in which this bacteria can flourish.
What about foods, can they be a cause?
Absolutely, eating foods and drinks such as garlic, onions, cheese, orange juice, soda, meat product, dairy products and high protein foods.
Also when food becomes lodged between your teeth and around gums it lends a very big part in production of oral bacteria.
How do I treat bad breath.
In almost all cases bad breath is caused by a problem of some sort in mouth. In which case it stands to reason that a visit to dentist can help determine what is wrong. In case that you may need dental treatment this may be cause of your problems.
