Care for oral and dental hygiene
Use a toothbrush and thread
Brush teeth and teeth must be cleaned, because the accumulation of food residue on the teeth leads to the accumulation of bacteria that cause bad breath, so brush the teeth at least twice a day, and use the thread at least once.
Use mouthwash
Mouthwash increases self-recovery and eliminates bad breath, because it helps get rid of the bacteria in the mouth, and prefer to choose a solution that kills germs, which removes the smell of the mouth, and after use is rinsed with water.
Clean the tongue
The tongue must be cleaned regularly because the layer forming on the tongue can be a good place to grow bacteria on it, which causes bad breath.
Drink plenty of water
Saliva contains oxygen, which inhibits the growth of bacteria, but at sleep less saliva production, this may be an explanation of the presence of smell of the mouth when waking from sleep, without saliva can not get rid of the remnants of food or the removal of bacteria, causing odors in the mouth. Drink plenty of water to keep saliva flowing, as saliva production can be stimulated temporarily by chewing gum or mint candy.
Avoid some foods and drinks
There are some foods and drinks that have a negative effect on the smell of breath, and these foods: onions and garlic, and it is possible when eating meat to stick small parts between the teeth even after cleaning, which attracts bacteria, and drinks that are recommended to avoid coffee and alcohol. Each of them increases the dryness of the mouth and reduces saliva. This creates a suitable environment for the bacteria to multiply and become bad breath.
Avoid opening your mouth when you sleep
Avoid opening the mouth when sleeping, if possible, because the air that enters and exits the mouth while breathing through the mouth causes dryness and reduces saliva, which promotes the growth of bacteria that cause bad breath.
