Prevention and treatment

1. Avoid eating strong flavoured food to prevent bad breath. If you have just had strong flavoured food, you can try
  • Brush your teeth with toothpaste
  • Use chewing gum
  • Rinse with mouthwash
  • Use breath freshener
2. Visit a dentist for regular Dental check-up
To ensure whether the bad breath is caused by oral diseases such as periodontal disease or Dental caries, or whether it is caused by insufficient saliva production; so that appropriate treatment can be given.

3. Pay attention to your regular oral hygiene practices to prevent oral problems
  • Brush your teeth with fluoride toothpaste every morning and before bed at night and floss your teeth daily.
  • Reduce the frequency of taking food or drinks
  • Keep the denture clean by thoroughly cleaning them every night and soaking it in a glass of water overnight.
4. Quit smokingIf you don't have any oral problem, nor have you eaten anything with a strong flavour, your bad breath may be caused by other medical problems. In that case, you should see a physician to find out the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
