Dry mouth
If your bad breath is the result of poor oral hygiene, you’re in luck. This is one of the easiest types to treat. Make sure you brush for a full three minutes before you climb into bed. Don’t forget to floss!
People who have no idea how long they brush can set a timer (there is probably one on your smartphone). In addition to cleaning tooth surfaces, scrub your tongue! Then take the time to floss around each tooth to wash away the plaque between your teeth and keep your gums healthy.
You can also brush after each meal to prevent food debris from sitting on their teeth. In addition to freshening your breath, brushing after each meal will improve your overall dental health.
Treating bad breath starts with a visit to Prestige Dentistry in Palm Harbor and Trinity FL. Be sure to mention it! People from Hudson, Clearwater, and East Lake come to us for our comprehensive general dentistry. Request an appointment today!
