Can teeth cleaning get rid of bad breath?

There are many reasons for bad breath, among which dental reasons are also one of the important reasons. For example, dental tartar can cause a lot of bacteria to adhere to the surface of the teeth. During the process of bacterial growth, odor will also be produced. Bad breath caused by this reason can be removed by teeth cleaning. This is also a simple oral bad breath. Of course, it is useless for bad breath caused by gastrointestinal diseases.

Useful for simple oral halitosis

In addition to obvious bad breath, the gums in the mouth are swollen and painful, the gums bleed, and there is toothache. This bad breath is mainly caused by oral diseases such as simple dental caries (commonly known as tooth decay) and periodontal disease (gingivitis and periodontitis). In addition, if you have dentures but do not brush them thoroughly every morning and evening, it can also cause bad breath.

Ultrasonic cleaning can be used to clean teeth and eliminate dental plaque, soft plaque, and tartar, which is beneficial for improving bad breath and preventing periodontal disease. Generally, it is advisable to have your teeth cleaned every six months or so, depending on your own conditions.

Not useful for bad breath caused by gastrointestinal diseases

The root cause of this type of bad breath is gastrointestinal dysfunction, metabolic dysfunction, and reduced body immunity. The body has difficulty suppressing pathogenic microorganisms that produce odorous compound gases. When a certain amount of polymerization is reached, high concentrations of odorous compound gases will be produced and enter the blood. They will be transported intact to the lungs and stomach, and then excreted from the body through the mouth and nasal cavity. Bad breath caused by this type of gastrointestinal disease cannot be completely treated by teeth cleaning.
