Causes

• Several causes can lead to bad breath problems.
  Improper oral hygiene is the biggest factor for
  contributing halitosis in most of the cases.
  Bacteria present in the mouth breakdowns the food
  and produce hydrogen sulphide and methyl
  mercapan, which are responsible for producing the
  foul smell. Second biggest cause of halitosis is
  an infection in the sinus, tonsils, or lower
  respiratory system. Other than these internal
  factors, external factors such as smoking and
  alcohol consumption can also lead to bad breath
  problem. Eating onions and garlic can also
  contribute to halitosis. As most of the Indian
  cuisine consist of garlic and onion, halitosis is
  very common in the country. Halitosis care in

• The treatment of halitosis depends upon its
  cause. In the case where bad breath is a result
  of maintaining a poor level of oral hygiene, a
  person can consult a dentist for immediate
  relief. Long term problem of halitosis can be
  managed with a proper level of regular medical
  care. Brushing twice daily can prove helpful in
  reducing the foul odor. A toothbrush with tongue
  cleaner needs to be used for brushing daily.
  Mouth rinsing with a mouthwash can reduce the
  intensity of bad breath. The habit of visiting a
  dentist regularly helps to avoid the problem of

  chronic sinusitis is a recurring problem that can
  be minimized with regular dentist check-up and
  medical counseling.
