Do you struggle with bad breath? Chronic bad breath, also called halitosis, is an embarrassing condition that can threaten your self-esteem, your relationships and even your career. While peppermints and chewing gum can mask bad breath, you can find effective, long-term relief with general dentistry. At Pure Dental Health, we have a team of skilled Dunwoody dentists who understand how to treat foul breath odor at its source.
Halitosis is certainly disruptive, but it can also be a warning sign that your oral health needs attention. Bad breath can be a symptom of advanced tooth decay as well as gum disease. Therefore, it is important to seek professional halitosis treatment to ensure more complicated dental health issues are not ignored.
Treatment for Bad Breath
Bad breath often develops when dental hygiene is poor. When excessive bacteria in the mouth feed on sugars and food debris, they produce a foul-smelling sulfur compound. It is important to brush and floss on a daily basis to prevent halitosis. This includes brushing all surfaces of your tongue, as the dark and moist grooves of the tongue can harbor millions of bacteria at a time.
When brushing and flossing efforts don’t improve your bad breath, you may need to be evaluated and treated for decay, gum disease or dry mouth. At Pure Dental Health, we have extensive knowledge and skill in treating halitosis in patients of all ages. We understand how important it is to have fresh breath and a confident smile.
