Many of the so-called causes of halitosis (bad breath) are actually little more than contributing factors to the condition. The key for finding a halitosis cure is to first find the cause and treat it accordingly. There are in fact only three main causes of chronic halitosis: bacteria, blood chemistry, and major disease or medical problems. Most causes of halitosis can be treated at home with good oral hygiene. In cases of chronic halitosis, some believe it can be cured or diminished by improving oral hygiene and monitoring food intake carefully. Fortunately, treatment is very effective for people who have bad breath originating directly in the oral cavity. Regular visits to your doctor and dentist are essential. Brushing your teeth and flossing will help maintain a healthy mouth and gums.
