Are you constantly reaching for breath mints or covering your mouth in an attempt to conceal your stinky breath? Is your mouth is emitting a nauseating odor, with no obvious cause to blame it on? We all experience bad breath on occasion, but around 30% of the population struggles with chronic halitosis (the medical term for bad breath).Â
There are some well-known causes of bad breath, like eating a fair amount of garlic, but there are several lesser-known causes to be aware of. At Warwick Valley Dental, we thrive on helping our patients overcome their dental issues. The first step in tackling your stinky breath is to get to the root of the problem.
Check out this video from the American Dental Association (ADA) to learn more about the causes of bad breath.Â
