Bad breath is a difficult subject to approach, even with a good friend or family member. There are many reasons for bad breath such as eating spicy foods and garlic, and inadequate oral hygiene.

What can be done?

If you are worried and think you may have bad breath, you must ask your dentist or hygienist and they will help you to establish whether or not you have a problem.

Over 90% of the odours causing bad breath come from within the mouth.

Your mouth will be assessed and the level of your problem discussed with you.

The areas that trap bacteria (stagnation areas) will be pointed out to you and then your hygienist will carefully clean around every tooth, removing the bacteria and deposits.

Working together our cosmetic dentists in Hertfordshire will show you how to achieve fresh breath and total confidence.

In conjunction with regular visits to your hygienist we recommend the use of the following   Retardex Oral Rinse Alcohol-FREE Retardex oral rinse is colourless and does not contain sugar or any artificial sweeteners.
