Bothered by Bad Breath? Don’t Be!

August 6 is National Fresh Breath Day. If you’re bothered by bad breath, you may not feel like celebrating. It’s bad enough that this odor makes you self-conscious. But it can also be evidence of dental problems such as gum disease. At Comfort Dentistry, your dentist will find out what’s causing the problem and help you get rid of it for good. 

The solution may be as simple as tweaking your daily oral hygiene or switching from one type of prescription medication to another. If gum disease is causing bad breath, our team can eliminate it with a deep cleaning treatment. If the stink is coming from dental decay, your dentist will treat it with a filling or a dental crown.

This short American Dental Association video covers some common causes of bad breath and offers suggestions for avoiding it. If their advice doesn’t eliminate your halitosis (bad breath), call Comfort Dentistry at 586-646-4253 to schedule an appointment in Shelby Township, MI.
