Quick Test to Check Your Own Bad Breath March 14, 2008

Posted by Health Mama in : Dental Care , trackback

Here’s a way to find out how your own breath smells: Cup your hands around your mouth, breathe forcefully into them, and take a whiff. (ehw..)If you think it smells bad, it probably smells dreadful to others.

In brief, halitosis or bad breath is easily recognised as unpleasant odour in the breath.It is caused by:

1>> Poor dental hygiene;

2. Dietary habits (oopps..I like eating curry);

3. Tooth or gum disease (When was the last time I went for my dental checkup ? Gosh..April,2006 !);

4. Illnesses such as diabetes, liver disease and lung disease.

The culprits of bad breath are the millions of bacteria that live in the mouth.
