Bad Breath Treatment in White Rock
Freshen Breath And Support Oral Health
Why Bad Breath Happens
Bad breath, also known as Halitosis, is often caused by Oral Bacteria that collect on the teeth, gums, tongue, or between teeth. These bacteria can release unpleasant odours, especially when Dental Plaque, Tongue Coating, and food particles are not removed through consistent brushing, flossing, and professional Dental Cleaning.
While mints, gum, and mouthwash may provide temporary freshness, they do not always address the source of the problem. Ongoing bad breath may be connected to gum disease, dry mouth, cavities, tobacco use, certain foods, medications, or other oral health concerns. Common Causes:
Bacteria Buildup from Plaque, Food, or The Tongue
Gum Disease, Cavities, Dry Mouth, or Infections
Tobacco Use, Certain Foods, Medications, or Reflux
