Understanding Bad Breath
More Than Just a Confidence Issue
Bad breath, or halitosis, can develop for many reasons, including poor oral hygiene, dry mouth, gum disease, tobacco use, and certain foods or medications. In some cases, it may even be linked to underlying health conditions. Identifying the source is the key to creating a treatment plan that’s effective and long-lasting.
- Plaque and bacteria buildup on the teeth or tongue
- Gum disease or oral infection
- Dry mouth or reduced saliva flow
- Certain medications or medical conditions
