Typical Causes of Bad Breath
The odors of bad breath always have underlying causes. After they are identified, proper treatment can occur. Below are some of the most common reasons that bad breath occurs.
- Bacteria: Oral bacteria that naturally develops in the mouth is a great cause of bad odor.
- Dry Mouth: People experience dry mouth for several reasons. Sometimes it is connected to a lack of hydration or a type of medication that one is taking. When dry mouth is persistent, often bad breath follows.
- Foods & Beverages: Some foods and drinks have strong odors, and this can be passed to the mouth during consumption. Additionally, some foods and drinks have the capability of absorbing moisture and drying the mouth out.
- Gum Disease & Tooth Decay: When the gums are diseased or where tooth decay is present so is odor causing bacteria.
- Tobacco: All tobacco products leave behind byproducts in the mouth and throat that affect the smell of one’s breath.
