About the treatment

Dental hygiene

Bad breath is caused due to bad oral hygiene. It includes food habits, tobacco products, dental hygiene, drugs and other mouth, nose and throat conditions. Maintaining good oral hygiene ensures that cavities are avoided and it reduces the likelihood of gum disease.

A dentist will simply smell the breath of a person with suspected bad breath and rate the odor on a six-point intensity scale. The dentist may scrape the back of the tongue and smell the scrapings as this area can often be a source of the aroma.
