Bad Breath Gum Questions and Answers

What can be used for bad breath besides chewing gum and mints?

Hi,

Poor oral hygiene due to poor home care and long-time negligence can result in gum disease.

Once the hard tartar forms, that in turn harbors more bad germs and initiates local destruction of the bone. That gradually creates more gap between the gums and the teeth, resulting in more food and germ impaction.

The retained food particles then get fermented by the germs and result in bad breath (HALITOSIS).

Getting serious about brushing, flossing and rinsing without the cleaning (deep cleaning in the case of gum disease) and followup cleanings WILL NOT make any difference.

If untreated, the vicious cycle continues. Gradually, the teeth become very loose. If treatment is sought at this point, the dentist recommends a 'deep cleaning' (which is called Scaling and Root Planing). Usually the periodontists and the hygienists evaluate you on a case basis and make that call.

You can try couple of other things :

1. On top of brushing your teeth use a "tongue scraper" to clean the tongue surface.

These days they say that food particles stay stuck in the crevices of the tongue and cause bad breath. Therefore, you need to clean your tongue on a daily basis as well.

2. Instead of using Listerine only (which you should not use more than 2 to 3 times a day and have to use in a diluted form), also rinse with luke warm salt water. One glass of water and a pinch of salt.

Listerine just masks the bad breath, but salt will kill the germs. Things will imporve once you have eliminated the germs that putrefy the food particles to cause bad breath.

After dinner, brush and floss. Then rinse with the salt water and go to bed like that. DO NOT rinse that out with plain water.

3. Watch what you eat and how you take care of yourself afterwards. Don't let any food / juice / drink sit in your mouth for long.

a) Garlic will cause stinky breath

b) Milk causes the formation of lactic acid, which in turn increases the number of bad germs.

c) Same with Orange Juice (citric acid), Vinegar (acetic acid), etc.

d) Whenever you eat something brush and floss your teeth.

e) Whenever you drink something chase it with water.

f) In general, drink plenty of water throughout the day.

Try these. I hope you will see much better result.


Useful Information about Bad Breath Gum

Try Curing Bad Breath With Acupuncture

Of all the curing bad breath remedies we've come across in our research this one seems a little outside the box. At least from the point of view of a typical western consumer who's been trained to throw more pills at any problem and it'll eventually go away or at least you won't feel so bad.

The Chinese believe, as part of the traditional Chinese medicine system, that bad breath can be caused by a malfunctioning digestive system and they have a cure for it. Before we talk about the cause and the cure, we need to talk a little bit about the medicine.

Traditional Chinese Medicine has been around along time, 2000 to 3000 years in fact. The traditional Chinese medicine's, approach to diagnosing and curing illnesses is fundamentally different from western medicine. The basic principals of traditional Chinese medicine are that all creation is born from the interdependency of two principles, the yin and yang. The two are in ever lasting motion that creates the balance in a health body. When either the yin or the yang becomes unbalanced, this is when disease and illness results. One of the body elements in traditional Chinese medicine is Qi (pronounced "chee") this is the energy that gives as the power to think, move, work and feel. Qi passes along on a system of conduits, the primary ones being channels. This is all manipulated or affected by various forms of tradition Chinese medicine from acupuncture right through to naturopathy.

Now that we know some extreme basics on traditional Chinese medicine, we can talk about the bad breath. The Chinese believe that the digestive system not function correctly is one of the causes for bad breath and more specifically "Stomach Heat" being the culprit.

Stomach heat as the name implies is too much heat in the stomach. This causes bad breath, gum problems, mouth ulcers and frontal head aches. Stomach heat can be caused by a number of factors from high stress to a bad diet. Correcting the original catalyst could very well solve your problem otherwise you may need some external help in the form of acupuncture.

Acupuncture has been around a very long time and is one of the many techniques that Chinese have been using for thousands of years. For those that do not know, acupuncture is the practice of placing very thin needles in various areas of your body to affect the body's energy. Acupuncture is used to restore the balance and harmonizes the yin and yang; this in turn relieves the heat in your stomach and your bad breath.
