Bad BreathIn the old days if you wanted a great, white, straight smile, you had to get your teeth capped. Well, that was then. Now, our patients have far more options.One of life's mysteries is how someone could have bad breath and not know it. After all, your mouth is only an inch from your nose. The answer is that, after a while, the brain stops paying attention to continuous sensory input. A simple example is when you put on a comfortable pair of new sneakers and your feet feel so good for the first few minutes, but after a while you don't notice it. Well, it's the same when you are producing those awful smelling sulfur compounds from the plaque on your teeth, gums and tongue. The answer is to use a chloride dioxide-containing toothpaste and mouth rinse like Oxyfresh, brush and floss daily and have regular dental cleanings. Bad breath is no joke, but most people don't know and their friends are too embarrassed to tell them. Laser periodontal therapy Our Periodontal specialist The Dental Store
