Your Dentist and Your Breath
New Year’s is past us, but you don’t need the excuse of a
brand new year to find someone to kiss. When you do find that special someone
and finally lock lips, you don’t want to be worrying about your breath. The
moment is packed with enough pressure as it is. Fortunately, your local
cosmetic dentist can help if you’re suffering from chronic and embarrassing bad
breath, or halitosis.
What causes bad breath? Well, bad breath is usually produced
from a problem in one of four parts of your body:
- Your mouth
- Your airway
- Your lungs
- Your stomach
Basic dental hygiene can do a lot to stave off bad breath:
brush and floss your teeth at least twice a day and you’ll do a lot to rid
yourself of the bacteria and food particulates that cause bad breath.
But what happens if all that hygiene doesn’t work out and
you still suffer from bad breath? That’s where your cosmetic dentist comes in.
There are a number of treatments he or she can pursue in order to get your
breath to a pleasant, kissable state.
Your dentist will be able to diagnose the precise cause of
your bad breath and proceed from there. He or she might recommend some oral
hygiene products that are specifically formulated to tackle bad breath. If your
problem is more structural and is caused by acid reflux disease or lung
disease, your dentist will be able to refer you to a qualified physician.
Please contact us
today to find a qualified cosmetic dentist in your area.
