Eliminate bad breath: If you have this in your mouth, you could have these bacteria
What causes bad breath?
Bad breath, or halitosis, can be resulted by a variety of factors, but one of the most popular is the presence of bacteria in the mouth. These bacteria deliver sulfur compounds that create an unpleasant odor. Although we all have bacteria in our mouths, certain types thrive because of poor hygiene or oral health problems.
Symptoms to look after:
- White tongue: If you spot a white or yellowish coating on the surface of your tongue, it could be a signal that certain bacteria are developing.
- Swollen or bleeding gums: Swollen gums can be a signal of gingivitis, a bacterial infection that, in addition to lead to bad breath, causing more serious problems if left untreated.
- Canker sores: Mouth ulcers can also be a signal of an imbalance in the bacterial flora.
