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 recognized as unpleasant odor 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.
