Hello doctor,
I am suffering from bad breath.
Kindly advise.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I can understand your situation. Bad breath or halitosis is mainly caused by food deposition in the gum and poor oral hygiene, so once a month, do scaling (ultrasonic cleaning) of your teeth in a dental clinic. Maybe your brushing is not proper, so you need to know the proper brushing technique. The deposition of food leads to gingivitis. I can guide you about proper brushing, flossing, and oral hygiene maintenance technique.
Please follow up on that.
Thank you.
