Of the many causes of bad breath, fermentation is one of the most common culprits. Learning how to identify fermentation bad breath will help you know if your halitosis is being caused by it. Armed with this knowledge, you can then takes steps to remedy the situation quickly. In this article, we will learn to do both.
Quite often, during meals, food particles can become lodged between the teeth. When this food starts to break down and ferment it can release some particularly nasty odors. If you are aware that your halitosis seems to occur soon after mealtimes, this could quite possibly be the reason.
Because of the location of the food particles, and the fact that it is often “just after mealtime” for many people, the usual recommended remedies of brushing your teeth and tongue and using mouthwash are not always enough. In fact, in the case of fermentation bad breath, for successful long term prevention, it is important to attack this problem from two angles.
First of course, is making sure those food particles get removed immediately after eating. Yes you should brush right after mealtime, but more importantly you should also floss. You’d be surprised how much of a stink can be produced by just a tiny spec of food fermenting in a tight crevice your toothbrush didn’t get to. Pull out that floss and get that stuff out from between your teeth before you breathe on anyone please.
Next, we have to take care of that bacteria that is causing the fermentation. Unfortunately, many people just seem to have a higher level of this in their mouth at all times. Because of this, even the strictest oral hygiene regime is not always enough to take care of the smell. Fortunately, there are methods to reduce the fermentation process naturally.
Drinking green tea is one of the best ways to do this. Green tea is noted for its anti-oxidant powers that can help your overall health in many ways. It seems these same chemicals in green tea are also very good at both reducing fermentation in the mouth and helping to eliminate any odor that is already present. As these anti-oxidants build up in your body, it can potentially reduce fermentation bad breath in the long term too. These should be reasons enough to drink several cups of green tea every day.
Hopefully, from the information above, you’ll be able to decided if fermentation is the possible cause of your halitosis. If you think it is, make sure to try the recommendations above and see if it doesn’t help. Either way, there’s no harm in improving your oral hygiene and adding a healthy drink to your daily diet.
