Bad health of oral hygiene: Regular tooth brushing, slight tongue brushing and dental checkup are recommended every year, even if there is no complaint. Use of dental floss after tooth brushing is necessary for effective cleaning.
Smoking: Cigarettes and similar substances taken by respiration also cause bad breath as it causes many illnesses.
Dental caries or abscess: Infection in the mouth increases bacterial production and causes smell.
Tongue inflammation, sinusitis: Upper respiratory tract infections also leak in the mouth, creating bad odor. Any discomfort that causes sinusitis and nasal obstruction causes the breath to be taken orally.

"Oral odor is normal when waking in the morning"
Dr. Oral and Dental Health Specialist Samiye Çelik evaluated the odor of the mouth in terms of tooth and mouth health:
Why do we smell more in the morning?
Gases that accumulate in the digestive tract during the night are the result of the odor of the mouth in the morning. It is not a sign of any health problem. However, when we sleep without brushing our teeth, the food residues in the mouth are used by the bacteria. As the flow of saliva decreases, this effect becomes more and more likely to cause odor.
What are the dental reasons for oral odor?
The place of oral hygiene is great in blocking the odor. Food left between the teeth, plaque on the tooth causes the mouth to smell. In addition, teeth stones, gum disorders and bruises in the areas that have not been cleaned for a long time cause serious bad breath. These are personal hygiene problems that are found in weak ones.
How should oral hygiene be provided?
Regular tooth brushing should not be neglected at least 2 times a day.
The best solution for plaque that accumulates between teeth is to use dental floss once a day.
Do not neglect your routine dental checkups.
If moving prostheses are used, they should be cleaned daily
Old and incompatible porcelain curtains and bridges must be replaced as they cause plaque buildup.
