Imagine you are starting a new job and are talking with your new boss for the first time. Confidence is key to your success. As you reach out to shake the extended hand your broad confident smile exposes rows of pearly white teeth, yet when you open your mouth to exchange greetings you worry about bad breath.
Perhaps your breath is not as a pleasant as you had hoped. Bad breath is a worry and possible embarrassment for many people. Regular dental checkups at The Plano Dentist can help alleviate your concern over bad breath.
The technical term for bad breath is halitosis. Many factors can cause or contribute to halitosis. One of these is the food you eat. Onions and garlic are both known for having a potent effect on your breath.
Brushing and flossing daily is an essential step in curing bad breath. Food particles can build up in your mouth and foster bacteria which can cause bad breath. This not only includes the food particles that may get stuck between your teeth, but also the food that collects around your gums or on your tongue. Brushing and flossing daily can help reduce the number of food particles that stay in your mouth and cause bad breath.
Other factors to examine include dry mouth, tobacco use, and health concerns such as infections. Come visit The Plano Dentist; your dental health is our primary concern. Our services include general and cosmetic dentistry. Make an appointment today.
