Dr. Carroll offers comprehensive treatment for those suffering with the embarrassment of  Halitosis, commonly known as bad breath. Halitosis is a persistent chronic condition which affects a person’s everyday life and confidence. There is no need to ignore it any longer.

• Halitosis is almost always caused by a buildup of excess bacteria in the mouth which gives off smelly gases.
• Persistent problems with bad breath are often associated with gum disease (also known as gingivitis) as people who suffer from gum disease have four times the chance of suffering from bad breath or halitosis.

Some key facts about bad breath

• Bad breath rarely originates in the stomach, throat, nose or sinuses as most people believe.
• Air released from the nose of a person with bad breath does not have any offensive odor. Air from the mouth does. In 95% of cases bad breath originates from the mouth.
• Public opinion surveys confirm that people form negative images of people with bad breath. Bad breath is a serious social handicap; it impairs social, sexual and
  occupational interactions.
• If your teeth and gums are in poor health, they may be one of the causes of bad breath. Regular, competent dental care is important in controlling bad breath odor.
• If the onset of your bad breath odor has been sudden, is growing noticeably worse over a period of days or weeks, or has been accompanied by the onset of fever, cough, or other symptoms, it would be wise to seek medical consultation.

Foods that contribute to Bad Breath – Halitosis:

Bacteria loves proteins; and certain foods are packed with them:

Milk and Cheese and most other dairy products. (The fat content does not matter.) If you are lactose intolerant, do not eat or drink these products! Since your system cannot digest them properly, they are available to the bacteria for an extended period of time.

Fish are high in proteins. As many people eat a high fish diet, logically they make the problem worse.

Coffee with caffeine (and even without) contains high levels of acids which cause the bacteria to reproduce more rapidly and create a bitter taste for many people. (Virtually any acidic type of food will do this.)
