What causes bad breath

Many people suffer from bad breath in life. Even people who don’t have bad breath will feel that their mouth smells bad when they wake up the next morning and they don’t want to eat. Therefore, for people with bad breath, they should clean their mouths in time and develop a good habit of brushing their teeth after eating. When talking to others, try to keep a certain distance to prevent your breath from being transmitted to others. So what causes bad breath?

The causes of bad breath are mostly oral and gastrointestinal factors. Oral factors are caused by excessive bacterial growth in the oral cavity and excessive accumulation of metabolic products. It is recommended that you clean your teeth first to remove the plaque and tartar around your teeth, and then local sandblasting will be more effective in removing stains. If symptoms persist, subgingival scaling may be required to remove stubborn plaque and tartar deep in the gum pockets. If there are a large number of decayed teeth, it may also cause obvious bad breath. Treating the relevant teeth can relieve the symptoms. At the same time, use a tongue scraper to remove some of the bacteria-rich tongue coating.

As for the gastrointestinal properties, there are two sources:

One is Helicobacter pylori, which requires long-term oral administration of amoxicillin, metronidazole, and omeprazole after diagnosis.

Second, gastric motility is poor and gastric emptying ability is weak, so one needs to eat easily digestible, fiber-rich foods, which can be solved by taking metoclopramide orally before meals. Pay attention to drinking plenty of water, eating more foods rich in fiber and vitamins, eating a heat-clearing and detoxifying diet, and having a regular work and rest schedule, which will also help relieve symptoms. According to statistics, 85% of bad breath is caused by oral factors, especially among young people. Therefore, it is generally recommended that young people go to the dental department for a check-up first, have any teeth filled that need to be filled, have any wisdom teeth or residual roots extracted that need to be extracted, and it is best to have a teeth cleaning. Brush your teeth correctly in the morning and evening, especially before going to bed at night. It is very important to brush your teeth. You cannot eat anything after brushing your teeth, and can only drink water (you can also Baidu "Bass brushing method video", which is the correct way to brush your teeth).
