WHAT IS BAD BREATH:
Halitosis is the medical name for bad breath. It describes an unpleasant smell in the breath which is detectable by other people. Most of us worry about having bad breath at some point. While it's not dangerous, it is can be embarrassing, especially as as we get used to our own odours and often don't know we have it.

WHAT CAUSES BAD BREATH:
Causes of bad breath may include:

• Eating or drinking strongsmelling or spicy foods and drinks
• Problems with your teeth or gums, such as gum disease, holes in your teeth or an infection
crash dieting
• Some medical conditions, like tonsillitis or acid reflux
• Smoking

WHAT HELPS REDUCE BAD BAD BREATH:
The best way of making sure you do not have bad breath is to keep your teeth, tongue and mouth clean.

• Gently brush your teeth and gums at least twice a day for 2 minutes
use a fluoride toothpaste
• Gently clean your tongue once a day using a tongue scraper or cleaner
• Clean between your teeth with interdental brushes or floss at least once a day
• Get regular dental checkups
• Keep dentures clean and remove them at night
• Use sugarfree mints or chewing gum after having strongsmelling food and drinks
• Try using an antibacterial mouthwash or toothpaste
• Do not smoke
• Do not rinse your mouth with water straight after brushing your teeth
• Do not have lots of sugary foods and drinks
do not brush so hard your gums or tongue bleed

HOW TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH PROPERLY:
Not long ago I made a video with a good friend of mine and dentist Dr Ehsan all about how to brush and floss your teeth properly like dentist. The video is very helpful and even I realised I was doing a few things wrong! I'd definitely recommend everyone to watch it and become a dental hygiene pro!

MOUTHWASH AND TOOTHPASTE INGREDIENTS:
Antibacterial agents that are included in mouthwashes and toothpastes include cetylpyridinium chloride, chlorhexidine, hexetidine, hydrogen peroxide, triclosan and zinc.

Please note Chlorhexidine mouthwash causes brown staining on the surface of teeth if used for 4 weeks or longer. This is a type of staining that comes off after scaling and polishing by a dental professional. For more information on this mouthwash please read the information leaflet and speak to your pharmacist.

Given the wide variation in products, the choice of preparation will depend on individual preference and product tolerability. However: Of toothpastes, the majority of studies providing evidence for an effect on halitosis have involved those containing triclosan.

HOW TO QUIT SMOKING:
Stopping smoking can make a big difference to your health and lifestyle. It is never too late to stop smoking to greatly benefit your health!
