Have you ever held your breath during a conversation, worried about bad breath? You're not alone. Bad breath, also known as halitosis, is a common problem that affects millions of Americans, and up to 80% of adults (whether they know it or not).
While it can be embarrassing, the good news is that bad breath is treatable. Here at 1000 Smiles, our friendly and professional team can help you achieve fresh breath and a more confident smile.
Several factors can contribute to bad breath, but it all comes down to bacteria. Some of the most common culprits that contribute to this include:
Neglecting your teeth and gums can lead to plaque buildup, which causes bad breath. Regular brushing and flossing are essential.
Foods like garlic, onions, and coffee can contribute to bad breath. They leave a lingering odor that can be hard to shake.
Saliva is essential for cleaning your mouth. When your mouth is dry, bacteria can grow and cause bad breath.
Tobacco products not only stain your teeth but also cause bad breath. Quitting smoking can significantly improve your breath.
Health problems such as stroke, osteoporosis, infection of the bones, heart attacks, diabetes, pneumonia, and premature births are all linked to bad breath. It’s crucial to address these health issues with a professional.
People with bad breath can have shorter lifespans if they do not treat it since the bacteria responsible for bad breath can get into your bloodstream and contribute to or cause health issues.
At 1000 Smiles, we offer a comprehensive approach to bad breath treatment in Thousand Oaks, CA. Our dentists will work with you to identify the cause of your bad breath and develop a treatment plan to address it. Here's how we can help:
BIOS stands for Bio Immersion Oxidation System. This FDA-approved and patented treatment helps cure bad breath forever. This method can reverse the bad breath caused by bacteria under the gumline. It is a completely safe and natural treatment that is applied to the gumline. Available only through Dr. Greg Rubin, D.D.S.!
When you apply the The BIOS Protocol to your gums, it serves not only to protect your gums against bacteria, but it attaches to the receptor sites in the gum tissue and is absorbed into your bloodstream. This is one of the most effective ways to strengthen your immune system to deliver a healthy dose of anti-oxidants to the parts of your body that need it most.
While the BIOS protocol is the recommended and most effective method for treating bad breath, here are some other, more mild solutions that may help.
