In observance of National Fresh Breath Day, we would like to emphasize the importance of maintaining a healthy mouth to prevent halitosis. (another word for bad breath) To ensure fresh and clean breath, follow these essential tips:
#1. When brushing your teeth, don't forget to clean your tongue as well. It's essential to remove bacteria and food particles that can accumulate on its surface. You can use a tongue scraper, soft-bristled manual toothbrush, or a soft electric toothbrush on its lowest setting.
#2. Flossing is also crucial as it reaches areas between your teeth that your toothbrush can't. Food and bacteria trapped in these spaces can negatively impact your breath.
If you're struggling with bad breath and can't determine the cause, our team at Today's Dental is here to help. Contact us at (423) 775-9971 to schedule an appointment.
