Suggest Treatment For Chronic Bad Breath Since Childhood

I have had bad breath ever since a toddler. My parents said I will outgrow this condition, as the doctor told them when they took me. I don t recall that, so it must have been early. But now it s bothers me terribly because no oral hygiene nor gum helps.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain bad breath or halitosis can occur due to conditions like poor oral hygiene,excess intake of high aroma foods like onion and garlic oral as well as tooth infection,chronic sinusitis, tonsil stones,digestive problems, diabetes etc..
I would suggest you to consult an Oral Physician again and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations as per the suspected cause can help in diagnosis and treatment can be planned accordingly..
As of now you can gargle with a flavoured mouthwash as it help in masking bad breath..
You can chew flavoured sugarfree chewing gums..
Do warm saline gargles..
Drink plenty of water and eat fresh fruits and raw vegetables and salads.
Maintain a good oral hygiene..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
