Good day
@bercast bago tayo dumiretso sa remedy, bukod sa dentist nagpakonsulta ka na ba sa ibang health professionals? Hindi lang kasi dental problems yung pwedeng panggalingan ng problem mo. :-)
Here are some interesting facts that I hope could help...
Most bad breath starts in your mouth, and there are many possible causes. They include:
Food. The breakdown of food particles in and around your teeth can increase bacteria and cause a foul odor. Eating certain foods, such as onions, garlic, and other vegetables 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.
Minsan pati yung amoy ng pawis natin, naaapektohan ng food na kinakain natin.Tobacco products. Smoking causes its own unpleasant mouth odor. Smokers and oral tobacco users are also more likely to have gum disease, another source of bad breath.
Pwede rin sya panggalingan ng dry mouth eventually.. see discussion below..Poor dental hygiene. If you don't brush and floss daily, food particles remain in your mouth, causing bad breath. A colorless, sticky film of bacteria (plaque) forms on your teeth and if not brushed away, plaque can irritate your gums (gingivitis) and eventually form plaque-filled pockets between your teeth and gums (periodontitis). The uneven surface of the tongue also can trap bacteria that produce odors. And dentures that aren't cleaned regularly or don't fit properly can harbor odor-causing bacteria and food particles.
Nasagot na ata ito ng Dentist.Dry mouth. Saliva helps cleanse your mouth, removing particles that may cause bad odors. A condition called dry mouth can contribute to bad breath because production of saliva is decreased. Dry mouth naturally occurs during sleep, leading to "morning breath," and is made worse if you sleep with your mouth open.
Lalo na sa mga taong naghihilik or yung mga may obstructive airway disease. Some medications can lead to a chronic dry mouth, as can a problem with your salivary glands and some diseases.
Katulad halimbawa ng Chronic Sinusitis or Nasal Polyps... Kaya kailangan mo rin magpa-konsulta sa duktor para malaman kung san pa posibleng manggaling yung problema.Infections in your mouth. Bad breath can be caused by surgical wounds after oral surgery, such as tooth removal, or as a result of tooth decay, gum disease or mouth sores.
Other mouth, nose and throat conditions. Bad breath can occasionally stem from small stones that form in the tonsils and are covered with bacteria that produce odorous chemicals.
Infections or chronic inflammation in the nose, sinuses or throat, which can contribute to postnasal drip, also can cause bad breath.
Medications. Some medications can indirectly produce bad breath by contributing to dry mouth. Others can be broken down in the body to release chemicals that can be carried on your breath.
Other causes. Diseases and other conditions such as metabolic disorders, can cause a distinctive breath odor as a result of chemicals they produce. Chronic reflux of stomach acids (gastroesophageal reflux disease) can be associated with bad breath.
Or yung may mga heartburn, hyperacidity... at yung mahina ang panunaw. Bad breath in young children may be caused by a foreign body, such as a small toy or piece of food, lodged in a nostril.
Yung ibang details isinama ko na rin for other people who might have the same problems but on a different background.Hope that helped. You can try asking advice from doctors such as an ENT specialist or a Gastroenterologist. The treatment would usually depend on the underlying condition.
