I cannot get rid of bad breath although I brush every day. What to do?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I brush my teeth every day and still cannot get my breath fresh. It comes from my throat. I have tried everything. Can you tell me what to do?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

This is the age when you will be having new teeth erupting which causes gum swellings and accumulation of plaque (deposits) on teeth which might cause the bad breath.

The other thing is any cavities, if present, cause bad breath as well.

Any gastro problem such as GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) may also cause this. People who skip breakfast also suffer from this.

So, in this way, there are many reasons for bad breath. First, we need to identify the cause so that we can come to a proper treatment plan. Just visit your dentist and get the solution soon.
