Bad breath and oral odor can be eliminated through various methods.
1. Daily oral care is essential, including brushing teeth morning and night for at least three minutes each time, using dental floss to clean between teeth, and rinsing the mouth after meals to ensure oral hygiene.
2. Treating the underlying causes is important—for example, if bad breath results from tooth decay, fillings or root canal treatment may be needed; if caused by tartar buildup, professional teeth cleaning is required to remove the tartar.
3. Maintaining healthy eating habits, such as eating more fruits and drinking green tea, can stimulate saliva production, reduce oral bacteria, and help alleviate bad breath.
4. Regular dental check-ups are recommended to maintain oral health and prevent the occurrence of bad breath.
Through proper daily care, targeted treatment of underlying causes, and improved dietary habits, dental and oral odor can be effectively eliminated. If symptoms persist, medical consultation is advised.
