Halitosis

Halitosis, also known as bad breath, is a common condition that affects many people. It is caused by a buildup of bacteria in the mouth, which can produce foul-smelling odors. Poor oral hygiene, dry mouth, certain foods, and even certain medical conditions can all contribute to bad breath. Treatment usually involves brushing and flossing regularly, using a tongue scraper, and drinking plenty of water. If the condition persists, a dentist may be consulted for further evaluation and treatment.
