How to treat bad breath

The following are treatment methods for severe bad breath: 1. Treat oral diseases: Bad breath is often associated with oral conditions such as dental caries and gingivitis. It's important to actively treat these issues through root canal therapy, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory treatments to fundamentally alleviate bad breath. 2. Regular teeth cleaning: Dental calculus and plaque are among the causes of bad breath. It is recommended to have a professional dental cleaning approximately every six months to reduce irritation from calculus and plaque. 3. Improve lifestyle habits: Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing teeth morning and night, rinsing the mouth after meals, and using mouthwash or oral breath sprays. Additionally, drink plenty of water, eat more vegetables and fruits, avoid overeating, and reduce the burden on the spleen and stomach. 4. Dietary adjustments: Regularly drinking honey lemon tea, lotus seed and lily bulb sweet soup, etc., can help clear internal heat, moisten the lungs, nourish yin, and relieve bad breath caused by excessive internal heat ("fire"). 5. Medication: For bad breath caused by excessive internal heat or spleen-stomach weakness, treatment under medical supervision with heat-clearing and fire-purging medications may be beneficial.
