A simple guide to preventing bad breath. Bad breath can be a sign of poor oral hygiene or other health problems, so it's important not to ignore it. As well as being a sign of poor dental hygiene, bad breath can make people feel self-conscious. "Bad breath, or more scientifically known as halitosis, is a common problem and yet it is still such a taboo subject, people don't want to talk about it,” Dr Parmar has shared his tips on how to keep bad breath at bay. Brush twice a day. First things first, it is essential that you brush your teeth twice a day. "Brushing correctly twice a day with an electric toothbrush is imperative," Clean between your teeth. While most people stay on top of brushing the surface of their teeth, they often forget to clean the gaps in between them. "Clean between your teeth every day," Dr Parmer advises. "Either with floss or with interdental brushes. Plaque build-up is a large contributor to bad breath." Scrape your tongue. Get yourself a tongue-scraping instrument to help avoid those odours. ”The back third of your tongue has a furry layer that also leads to bad breath. Cleaned daily as part of your overall routine, it will play a large part in eliminating bad breath.” Use the right products. Using quality products, including toothpaste and mouthwash, will help reduce the risk of bad breath. "It is so important to use dentist-recommended products that will combat the problem. The majority of mouthwashes on the market simply mask the issue. As a professional, I have been using UltraDEX mouthwash for over 20 years and recommend it to all my patients.”
