Bad breath, also known as Halitosis, is a very common condition in adults. It can be caused by something you eat or signify a deeper oral health issue or serious medical issue. Poor oral hygiene is one of the common causes of bad breath. When you don’t clean your mouth and teeth regularly, food particles can remain in your mouth and develops a sticky build-up of bacteria which produces a bad odour in your mouth. Poor dental hygiene also results in other oral health conditions such as cavities and gum disease, which can cause bad breath.
