Halitosis is actually not a disease, but caused by poor oral hygiene. Now most people have developed good oral hygiene habits, but still can not get rid of the problem of halitosis. Why? What is the cause of halitosis. Now let's share with you.

What causes halitosis

First: foreign body in nasal cavity, atrophic rhinitis, sinusitis, suppurative tonsillitis, lung abscess, bronchiectasis and other diseases can cause purulent halitosis.

Second: gastrointestinal dysfunction can cause acid halitosis, which is most common in children. After the recovery of gastrointestinal function, halitosis disappeared.

Third: not brushing teeth in the morning and evening, not gargling after meals and other oral hygiene will cause putrefaction halitosis. The tartar accumulated on the gingival margin and the food residue embedded in the crevices or cavities will give off the odor of putrefaction after fermentation. To eliminate this bad breath, we must pay attention to oral hygiene.
