Investigating the Causes of Bad Breath

Halitosis – more commonly known as bad breath – can strike
anyone, for any number of reasons. Though the average case
can usually be treated with brushing, flossing and a
mouthwash rinse, there are those who suffer from chronic
bad breath and expend a great deal of time, effort and
frustration in their search for an effective cure. This
often results in failure, since there are a number of
health issues which may be the catalyst for such a
condition. Individuals who experience the effects of
halitosis should seek intervention from their dentist or
primary care physician if they find that their attempts to
treat the problem are unsuccessful.

The Passage to Bad Breath – Your Nose is Leading the Way

Did you ever think that your nose, not your mouth, could be
the cause of your bad breath? It’s true! For adults and
children, bad breath out of the nose is caused by sinus
problems, nasal congestion, allergies, the common cold and
other forms of congestion. To make matters worse,
over-the-counter antihistamines and cold medicine can dry
out your mouth. Add the dry mouth (a haven for bad breath
bacteria) with the mucus dripping from your nasal passages
and you have double trouble: bad breath out of the nose and
out of the mouth. As word of note to parents whose children
have bad breath out of the nose, make sure they have not
lodged a pea or other small food item in their nose. This
has been an odd ritual among children for ages.

Bad Breath in the Throat – Causes and Remedies

Bad Breath in the Throat: Causes and Remedies

Bad breath in the throat is caused by a build up of
bacteria at the back of the throat and no wonder since the
back of your throat is like Grand Central Station for
bacteria. Think about it, every time you eat or drink, each
time you swallow and whenever you have post nasal drip, the
back of your throat has to fight bad breath from taking
over. You can’t taste it, or smell it, so people rarely
even know they have bad breath! It is like walking around
with a big sign on your back that you can’t see, “I have
bad breath.” It is embarrassing, and sadly, can affect your
social life.

Bad Breath – Think You Don’t Have Bad Breath? Guess Again!

Bad breath can rule your life and what others think about
you. We’ve all spoken to someone with bad breath. Chances
are you looked away, smiled politely and tried to get away
as quickly as possible from the offensive odor. More than
likely you were embarrassed for that person, who seemed to
be clueless about their bad breath. Even the most stunning,
funny, charming person in the world can develop bad breath
(halitosis) and make people within range cringe and look
away. You could be delivering a speech on how to cure some
of the most wide-spread and growing diseases, but if your
breath smells, people will focus on that offense and not
the achievement you’re speaking of. This is a sad, but
true, reality of bad breath.
