Practicing good oral hygiene habits and having your teeth professionally cleaned twice a year is the best way to reduce odor causing plaque from building up in your mouth and on your teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In honor of National Fresh Breath Day on August 6th<\/sup>, fight bad breath by keeping your mouth healthy with these simple strategies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brush, Floss, Rinse … Repeat!<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Removing leftover food particles is the most important weapon against fighting bad breath. Why? Because those remnants of your meals and snacks become sticky plaque on your teeth, which collect bacteria that creates bad smells in your mouth. The best way to prevent plaque from building up is to brush your teeth after every meal, floss once a day and use a mouth rinse that kills odor causing germs<\/a>. When you brush, be sure to be thorough \u2013 brush all your teeth from all angles for two minutes. And don\u2019t forget to give your tongue a good scrubbing too! Replacing your toothbrush every few months is important, since worn down bristles become less effective at scrubbing teeth. Flossing before bed ensures that anything stuck between your teeth or at the gum line gets removed, and rinsing with mouthwash rinses it all away leaving you with a clean mouth at the end of each day.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay Hydrated<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Drinking lots of water throughout the day helps prevent bad breath in two ways. First, it continually rinses away food particles between brushings. In fact, if you can\u2019t brush your teeth after a meal or snack, swirling water around your mouth is the next best thing. The second way sipping helps is by encouraging your mouth to create more saliva. Too little saliva, or dry mouth, can cause tooth decay and bad breath<\/a>. So keeping a moist environment in your mouth is key for fresh breath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chew Wisely <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another way to help moisten your mouth and create more saliva is by chewing gum. But not all gum is created equal. Chewing gum that has sugar can do more harm than good since it can cause cavities. Chomping on a piece of sugar-free gum is a great way to increase the saliva in your mouth which will reduce odor causing bacteria. While preventing bad breath from happening in the first place is optimal, it can\u2019t always be avoided. Eating and drinking certain foods can cause a bad odor in your mouths after you consume them<\/a>. When that happens, the minty flavor from sugar free gum will cover up the bad scent with a more pleasant one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Certain medications or medical conditions, including some cancers, metabolic disorders, and chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease can cause your breath to have a foul odor<\/a>, so it is important to see a medical professional to get an accurate diagnosis.\u00a0Be sure to call today and schedule an appointment to come see one of our skilled dentists<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
