what causes bad breath and how you can prevent it

Ways to Prevent Bad Breath from Happening

We may not consider having bad breath as a big issue (for some), but we still shouldn’t ignore it. Bad breath can be a sign that we may have a serious bad dental condition that’s causing it.

You can never go wrong with regular brushing and flossing.

It’s recommended that you brush and floss 2-3 times a day.

Now you shouldn’t forget about your tongue either since your teeth and gums aren’t the only parts of your mouth that touch the food.

When you find a problem with your teeth or gums, you shouldn’t waste time in going to a dentist to have it checked and fixed.

● infections are one of the prime causes of bad breath, so leaving them alone will not only worsen the infection, but your breath as well.

Use a few drops of peppermint oil or tea tree oil on your tongue.

You may also use these drops on your toothbrush when you’re brushing your teeth.

Save yourself from the embarrassment and potential health risks of bad breath with these tips and with regular visits to your dentist.
