Bad breath will soon be a thing of the past!
Are you one of those people who has a hard time keeping your breath fresh? Chances are you have gum disease. If you do, your breath might feel fresh right after you suck on a mint, but it isn’t long before it begins to trouble you again.
By the way, how can a person tell they have bad breath if a friend or family member doesn’t tell them? One dead give-away is a bad taste in your mouth. You can also lick your finger and then smell it. Yuck? Well, fortunately there are things you can do.
For one thing, you can make sure you always brush your tongue and the roof of your mouth any time you brush your teeth. In fact, if your gum disease has already run its course and you’ve already lost your teeth, you can still brush out the inside of your mouth! There are also special tongue cleaners on the market for cleansing any bad smelling bacteria off your tongue.
Curing the gum disease, though, will let you keep your teeth longer, and will also help in curing bad breath. The best treatment you can give your gums is to brush with a natural essential oil blend formulated just for gum health. My son is having great results treating his gum disease!
Chewing gum is a popular treat for many people. We have one child that would rather chew gum than eat candy. Personally, my jaw gets tired after a while and I have to get rid of it. How did anyone ever get the idea to chew gum anyway?
The first people to chew something similar to chewing gum chewed on oozy sap from trees. The ancient Greeks and the Mayans both had a type of tree that oozed sap that made a good substance to chew on for cleaning the teeth and as a bad breath cure. In the part of North America that is now New England, native people were chewing the sap from spruce trees.
The first example of chewing gum sold commercially in the U.S. was made from spruce. Ultimately, however, the “chicle” sap from the Sapodilla tree, which was used by the Mayans, became the preferred sap for making commercial gum. Paraffin wax was used for chewing for a while, but if you remember those wax lips and scary teeth we used to get back in the ’60’s, you know that chewing on wax is not near as pleasant as chewing gum.
Chewing gum makes the breath feel fresher for a while, but it is certainly not a bad breath cure! If you like to chew gum, though, make sure you get one sweetened with xylitol and not with sugar. We all know sugar damages your teeth. You might look for special chewing gums that contain herbs like neem or nutrients like zinc gluconate.
If you have gum disease, the best bad breath cure is to fight the disease with a program of natural gum care and daily flossing.
Chronic halitosis causes social agony for millions of sufferers. The psychological implications of being avoided or teased because of your breath has caused many to withdraw from public activities. Is there any way to treat this malady? What causes chronic halitosis anyway?
Bad breath is almost always caused by bacteria that live in nooks and crannies inside the mouth. If you have fissures in your tongue, or pockets under your tonsils, or similar hidey holes in your mouth, these sulfur producing microbes will find them and camp out. Gum disease, with the customary pockets it forms around the bases of the teeth, provides a haven for these bacteria. This is why chronic halitosis is one of the symptoms of gum disease.
Some factors increase the amount of these bacteria in the system. One is having a dry mouth. This is often a side effect of medication. Thick mucous and post nasal drip also contribute to this dryness. Drinking lots of water can make a big difference in chronic halitosis for several reasons. It washes away small bits of food or other impurities that can lodge in the teeth and it keeps the mouth moist.
Smoking causes bad breath, of course, and can contribute to gum disease. It is also thought that high protein diets can contribute to chronic halitosis. In fact, people on very low carb diets tend to develop a certain type of bad breath unique to that diet. Of course, onion and garlic, healthful foods otherwise, leave their own unique aroma, but they don’t cause a chronic bad breath problem.
Many people think that chronic halitosis comes from the digestive tract or the lungs. This is simply not the case. Another mistaken idea people have is that they can keep their breath fresh with very frequent brushing of their teeth. In reality, too much brushing can aggravate chronic halitosis by increasing the dryness of the mouth. Too much brushing can also be damaging to the gums.
The best way to treat chronic halitosis is to treat the underlying condition. If the cause of the bad breath happens to be gum disease, switching from conventional toothpaste to Oram Plus can help heal the gums, resulting in fresher breath.
