Bad breath is embarrassing, especially when others notice. Usually, bad breath isn’t a cause for medical attention because most of us experience it at some point in our lives, but sometimes it can be a sign of something more serious. To rule out any underlying medical conditions and to assure that your mouth is healthy, schedule a consultation with one of our doctors at The Oyster Bay Family Dentists.
Bad breath can linger after consuming foods such as garlic, onions, and even coffee. It’s not only associated with food, however. It can be a symptom of dry mouth, occur as a result of smoking, and even be a warning sign for gum disease. Treatment for bad breath will depend on the cause, but a consultation will include a dental exam while our doctors review your oral hygiene habits.
