Natural Remedies To Banish Bad Breath

Clean Dental Appliances Properly

Dental appliances and dentures help many patients keep their teeth straight and smile looking healthy. However, they can also cause bad breath. This is because many individuals do not clean them properly. When they are fitted for dentures or other dental appliances, patients should ask their dentist for specific directions on how to clean them. This might mean using denture cleaner for some patients. Other patients can clean their dental appliances with interdental brushes or other specialized cleaning tools. Using an oral irrigator regularly can help blast bacteria and food debris from crevices the appliance creates. These crevices can be hard to reach with a normal toothbrush. Oral irrigators perform this function by blasting a strong stream of water into the patient’s mouth.
