USE DENTAL FLOSS AND MOUTHWASH

Brushing your teeth after eating is necessary, but insufficient. If dental floss is not used, food settles dec the surface of the teeth, between them, or in deep gum pockets and produces bacteria over time. The gases produced by these bacteria lead to bad breath. With proper oral cleaning, this situation can be solved

Bad breath is a disease. Although the masks worn during this period do not transmit the mouth odor to the opposite side, you will get the smell yourself. Moreover, constant inhalation of the same air causes the smell to increase even more. The moment you remove the mask, the bad breath can become unpleasant. It is necessary to be treated to prevent odor! Although the masks worn due to the coronavirus outbreak do not transmit bad breath to the opposite side, you actually get that smell yourself. Because we wear masks, we always take the same breath together with the smell from the mouth. A person with bad breath is a big social patient, and not just a personal one. In the most developed economies of the world or in the most civilized places, wherever there is a person, there is a problem called bad breath. Although this is an inevitable fact, it is also a disease. A person almost carries his illness with him. For the prevention of odor, it is necessary to know why it occurs and what to do.

HUMIDIFY YOUR ROOM

Physiological halitosis is a natural condition. Bad breath, especially in the morning, can be evaluated in this class. An increase in the number of bacteria due to a decrease in salivation at night and sulfur-containing gases formed by these bacteria cause this condition. Physiological bad breath does not require treatment; as soon as you wake up in the morning, rinsing your mouth, drinking a glass of water, or brushing your teeth will be enough to get rid of the smell. Keeping the sleeping room moist will also prevent oral breathing by providing comfortable breathing and reduce the drying of the mouth.

GARGLE TOO

Too much consumed meat, protein-rich foods such as milk, fragrant foods such as garlic, onions, radish; due to the intense sulfur content, it can cause an odor. Consuming too much coffee and alcohol, as well as smoking, are also among the causes of bad breath. Decongestants Brushing your teeth and flossing, brushing your tongue, mouthwash, or consuming deodorizing foods such as parsley, mint after eating will help the smell pass quickly. Bad breath does not improve only with the usual methods of cleaning the mouth, such as brushing your teeth, rinsing your mouth. Treatment should be carried out by descending to the source of the odor. Although there are a wide variety of reasons involved in the formation of this type of odor, it is known that 85-90 percent of it is caused by the oral environment. It is necessary, but insufficient, to brush your teeth only after eating. If the teeth are not properly brushed or flossed after eating, the food settles on the surface of the teeth, between them, or in deep gum pockets, decays over time, and produces bacteria. The odorous gases produced by these bacteria lead to bad breath. This situation can be solved with proper oral cleaning.

.
CLEANING OF DENTAL CALCULUS IS NOT NEGLECTED

You can use mouthwash as a support. Do not neglect the dentist’s checks and dental stone cleaning every six months. Drinking a lot of water, especially at an older age, can also be used as an important weapon in the fight against bad breath by preventing your tongue from drying out. Water helps to keep bacteria in the mouth to a minimum. It also helps to increase salivation.

.
USE DENTAL FLOSS

In areas that are difficult to clean, specially manufactured interface brushes should be preferred for the cleaning process. During bridge cleaning, interface brushes and dental floss manufactured for bridges should be used again, and old bridges should be renewed as soon as possible. Teeth are cleaned naturally by the cheek and tongue when chewing food. In cases where there is a lack of teeth, there is a more intense accumulation of food on the opposite and side teeth, since there will also be no chewing on the side where there is no tooth. After your problems with the teeth have disappeared, you should continue your regular dental care. You should not disrupt the use of toothbrushes, dental floss and toothbrushes.

.
BURIED 20-YEAR-OLD TOOTH SHOULD BE REMOVED

Caries, abscesses, gingivitis, hard-to-clean gum pockets on the teeth are common causes of bad breath. Due to bone loss, difficult-to-clean dec december occur between the teeth and can cause a very bad smell. Gum pockets and bridges that cannot be easily cleaned, which cause food to accumulate around a buried 20-year-old tooth, coatings that have not been renewed for years and have decongested with gums are also among the sources of odor. Removable dentures with incompatible, uncleaned or rough surfaces with food accumulation also smell due to food residues. In such cases, caries should be cleaned, gum treatment should be performed, problematic 20-year-old teeth should be pulled out. It is necessary to remember to clean the surface of the tongue during oral care. For this, it will be enough to use your toothbrush or special scrapers made for the tongue. Flossing and using mouth water after brushing will also be effective in cleaning bacteria. Make sure that the mouth water that you use regularly does not have a medicinal property and is not dark enough to dye your teeth. Sinusitis and inflammation of the nose can also cause nasal discharge and cause bad breath. When polyps or similar pathologies form in the nose, they also block the flow of air through the nose, which leads to drying of the nasal mucosa. This also causes of bad breath. In this case, the bad smell comes from the nose rather than the mouth. Inflammation of the tonsils does not cause constant bad breath. But there is a temporary bad breath during infection. In addition, lung infections, lung abscess and COPD cause bad breath.
