Greetings to my esteemed friends on the Cent platform and the entire Hive blockchain. Today I'll talking about the implications of bad breath and possible solutions. It's your friend @faquan saying hello from this part of the world.
Many people out there don't really know that have bad breath and at the same time they don't understand why people are distancing themselves from them. Sometimes when you're bold enough to tell an individual that he or she has bad breath, they become angry with you or becomes your enemy.
Just like the word bad breath it means an unpleasant smell that comes out of the mouth. Unpleasant in the sense that it discomforts other people. While some are having minimal smell, others are having severe odour.
What are the causes of bad breathe?
Food. The breakdown of food particles in and around your teeth can lead to more bacteria and cause a foul odor. Eating certain foods, such as onions, garlic and spices, also can cause bad breath. After you digest these foods, they enter your bloodstream, are carried to your lungs and affect your breath.
Tobacco products. Smoking causes unpleasant mouth odor. Tobacco users also are more likely to have gum disease, which is another source of bad breath.
Not keeping your mouth clean. The teeth should be kept clean by brushing at least twice daily. Food particles usually attracts bacterias if not properly clean. Brushing well and efficiently is needed to avoid bad breath.
Bad Breath and Social Distancing
Most friends have been abandoned due to bad breath and this has caused losing important people in their lives. In some cases, it has caused severe stigmatization. I think most people who social distance themselves from people with bad breath and mouth odour don't intentionally do that but due to the breath that comes out of the mouth of someone that has bad breath.
How to Prevent Bad Breath
- Brush twice a day, for at least two minutes each time, and floss once a day. Remember to clean your tongue with your brush or a tongue scraper, which you can buy in the oral health aisle.
- Use an alcohol-free antibacterial mouthwash.
- See your dentist regularly for checkups and cleanings. For some people, this may be every six months. But others may need more frequent visits to keep their oral health in check.
- Drink water regularly.
