Suggest treatment for halitosis
Patient: hello... i am 33yrs old...169cms height...62kgs weight... i am suffering since long from halitosis...is there a cure for it? i have consulted my dentist and my oral hygine is now good...but even after brushing teeth i suffer from bad breath...can you please advise me? Doctor: Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.The halitosis could be because of the deposits or any pus discharge secondary to tooth or gum infection or any respiratory tract or gastrointestinal infection.Consult a oral physician and get it ruled out.If it is because of gum infection, then get your teeth cleaned and maintain oral hygiene and use mouth washes.If there is tooth or gum infection get it treated with RCT or extraction.If it is respiratory tract or gastrointestinal infection then you have to consult pulmonologist and gastroenterologist. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
