Teeth problem ?how to better life?
Bad breath can be becoz of


1) improper brushing technique causing the food to accumalate between the teeth or between teeth and gums, so that the bacteria can feed on it and produce toxins leading to variety of problems including bad breath


2)coated tongue. if he doesnt clean his tongue while brushing food tends 2 accumalate in between the papillae on the tongue which is a good habitat for bacteria causing the bad breath


3)irregularly arranged teeth provide home for the food thus a shelter for the bacteria causing variety of problems includi bad breath.


4)indigestion problem is also one of the causes of bad breath


So my suggestion is do'nt diagnose and treat ur self' go to a dentist( a person with a B.D.S. degree) and get ur proper treatment


It is always advised to visit a dentist atleast twice a year for a regular checkup.
Reply:Pbly one of his tooth has a cavity inside. Ask him to meet the dentist asap.
Reply:Make him chew on some gum.





He can't help it, it happens.
Reply:problem isn't on the teeth. sounds like he needs to have a tongue scrapping to start with. the bacteria that causes bad breath doesn't usually happen on the teeth. He should get it checked out cause sometimes bad breath could be a sign of something else.
Reply:He needs to see a dentist and hygenist. They will do a teeth cleaning. Generally this is a result of bacterial build up or tartar, and he needs to FLOSS as well as brush. The brushing may get stuff on the surface of his teeth, but in between is where it needs attention as well. Halitosis can have several causes though. Maybe a dentist or dental hygenist will chime in as well.
Reply:I'd first try some inexpensive mouthwash and floss as well. If that doesn't work maybe try getting a new, doesn't have to be expensive either, toothbrush. And again if that doesn't work he may have a dental problem in which he may want to see a dentist.
Reply:Even though he brushes his teeth, he may still have dental issues(tooth decay or periodontal disease). He wants to make sure he brushes his tongue also, and brushes for at least two minutes. Its always good to have annual checkups and floss daily too. I can get you more info if need be.

It is a universal problem which is not being tackled in the correct way majority of the times.


Bad breath could be due to :





problems in the oral cavity


problems in the nasal or throat


gastro intestinal problems.





Oral cavity - bad hygeine, infected teeth or gums, etc etc...


nasal and throat problems -sinusitis, chronic tonsillitis, deviated nasal septum and associated infections and blockage. etc etc..


gastro intestinal - worm infestations , improper digestion, etcc..


Majority of the occasions , an expert opinion from a denatal and an ENT surgeon will relieve 90% of the problems.


After this, gastro intestinal problem can be taken cae of by a general physician or surgeon.





Dont worry ! It is a problem for which you have


solutions !


All the best !
