A little known fact about bad breath (at least among those who do not personally suffer from the problem) is that brushing and flossing actually isn’t enough to put an end to it. Most people do not know this, but for people who suffer from chronic bad breath, it is all too true. I am a chronic bad breath sufferer myself, and I know from experience that brushing and flossing is not the key to getting rid of bad breath.
You probably wouldn’t even be here paying attention to my words right now if this subject didn’t hit home. Don’t worry, because I understand what you’re going through completely and I’m here to help.
Most of us who suffer from chronic bad breath first discovered this during childhood, when they were told by other kids that their breath was bad. As you get older, it becomes an even more embarrassing problem because people stop telling you when you have it, but you always have that lingering fear that your breath is still offensive. Your suspicions are usually confirmed by people’s aversions to you, and if you have romantic interests, bad breath can be a very serious problem indeed.
If you’ve ever asked a dentist or sought out “professional” help with your halitosis, you’ve probably already realized that most people just don’t really have any useful advice to give in this area. On top of the lack of help being an issue, the misconceptions that the public have cause a lot of embarrassment for those who suffer from bad breath. If you have bad breath, people automatically assume that it is because you do not properly take care of yourself. Even your dentists are likely to think this!
If you’ve noticed that some people seem to have much greater difficulty keeping their breath fresh than others, you’re spot on. But contrary to what the public may have you believe, it has nothing to do with them knowing a better way to brush their teeth or them flossing more regularly than you. Instead, the reason that you have bad breath is that the specific bacteria which causes bad breath finds your mouth more hospitable than others. The bacteria creates something called “sulfur”, which is the true culprit.
Sulfur stinks. I don’t mean to be crude, but there’s no better way to put it. Unfortunately, you were simply born with a certain geographic layout and temperature in your mouth which allows this sulfur creating bacteria to thrive.
In order to rid yourself of bad breath forever, you must think outside of the box. We’ve already established that proper oral care alone is not enough to stop these bacteria from flourishing. These bacteria absolutely despise a pH balanced environment. A key component to fighting bad breath will be oxygen.
It would be great if we could wake up in the morning and have fresh breath all day just from brushing our teeth, but we only get one chance on this rock and we may as well play the cards we were dealt. Do not count on brushing and flossing to be enough to cure your bad breath.
