Bad Breath Be Gone

November 25, 2008

Are you concerned about your breath? Do you feel as though you need to do a breath test before you talk to someone? Your bad breath may not be anything to get worried over. A piece of gum or even a breath mint can usually set it right.

If you find that a mint only temporarily hides the odor, you may want to pay a visit to your friendly neighborhood dentist. There is a possibility of gum disease which could be causing your bad breath. Tooth decay is also a culprit and can cause bacteria to build up on your tongue.

Another cause of bad breath is gastro-esophageal reflux disease. For this you can see your family doctor for some medication. Stomach acid causes you to burp partially digested food which leaves a bad odor in your mouth. Try to reduce your stress level and this will reduce bad stomach acid.

Some other reasons for bad acid are coffee and spicy foods. If you are an avid coffee drinker and crave that caffeine, try to cut back and drink some water. As for the spicy, invest in some antacids. This can help your stomach to not produce too much bad stomach acid.

When brushing your teeth, always clean your tongue. You want to scrub it ever so gently as to not do any damage. You can get special scrapers that will get the icky stuff off of your tongue. And don’t forget to floss in between meals. This will cut back on the amount of left over food in your mouth. This can cause bad odor. Your mouth holds all kinds of germs that will cause bad breath. Follow a few simple rules and you will breathe nothing but good air in the right direction.
