Bad breath is also known as Halitosis and is a common thing with most people.
Bad breath can be treated by yourself in the comfort of your own home by ensuring that you keep your teeth, mouth and tongue clean.
Bad Breath (Halitosis) can be caused by a selection of things:
- Poor oral hygiene (decay, gum disease, dry mouth or infections)
- Medical conditions such as acid reflux or tonsillitis
- Smoking
- Diets
How to keep your mouth, teeth and tongue clean:
- Brush your teeth at least 2x daily with a fluoride toothpaste for 2 minutes
- Clean your tongue 1x daily using a tongue scraper
- Use interdental aids 1x daily
- Visit your dentist for regular 6 month check-ups
- If you wear dentures, remove then at night to allow your soft tissues to breathe
- Chew sugar free chewing gum or have sugar free mints after having strong smelling foods/drinks
- Antibacterial Mouthwash at mealtimes or a separate time to brushing

I was in for the new air flow today with Steph. I have really sensitive teeth and was quite anxious about it but it was totally fine. Steph is a brilliant therapist and put me so at ease through the whole appointment.

Been going to Deveron for the last 4-5 years Lovely team always welcoming and helpful but wanted to leave a review after my visit to the hygienist Stephanie Cooper Without doubt the best scale and polish I have ever experienced. She was very steady and methodical and allowed me to swallow and clear my mouth several times. I had no pain or tenderness and no bleeding from the gums. Thank You 😊

Like most people I have always been nervous around dentists until now. I don't have the best teeth in the world but everyone from the receptionist to the dentists make you feel so relaxed and welcomed. They explain everything and really understanding if your nervous or have any problems. It's just a happy caring place and I really wish more dentists were like this. I just feel safe in their hands. Thank you for all your help and advice. Martin

The Deveron Dental Centre is a five star visit at every visit. I am always made to feel super comfortable from start to finish. The staff always go the extra mile for you and nothing is ever to much hassle for them. I would recommend this practice to everyone as I have never had a bad experience here! You are always greeted with a smile and the smile continues when taken through to the surgery. All the staff seem genuinely happy to be their! 10/10 Deveron Dental keep up the good work!
