How can you treat halitosis?

In the vast majority of cases it may be that your halitosis problem can be treated by improved oral hygiene.

The simple inclusion in your daily routine of a mouthwash or proprietary breath freshener product, of which there are many on the market, may solve your problem. As with all general-purpose formulations, any one particular product may be effective for some, partly effective for a few, and not at all helpful for others. It is worth experimenting.

Mouthwashes, toothpastes, gels and rinses

Rinses containing antibacterials such as chlorhexidine, zinc gluconate, or chlorine dioxide may provide effective relief depending on the individual. Avoid alcohol-containing rinses, since alcohol is a drying agent and will worsen the problem.

Bad breath may be temporarily reduced by using a hydrogen peroxide rinse. Hydrogen peroxide at a concentration of 1.5% can be taken as an oral antiseptic by gargling 10 ml, about two teaspoons. Hydrogen peroxide is commonly available at a concentration of 3% and should be diluted to 1.5% by mixing it with an equal volume of water. Hydrogen peroxide is a powerful oxidizer which kills most bacteria, including some useful bacteria.

The most effective products are generally not available in drugstores, but can be found on the internet. High-quality home breath tests and antibacterial rinses, spritzes, toothpastes, gums, mints, and tongue gels tend to be higher in price, like any premium product; but unlike the well-known inexpensive brand names, they do a much better job of controlling persistent breath problems.
