Treatment of halitosis (bad breath)
 

Dr. Major feels that while bad breath might be a symptom of some other disorder, it most likely stems from dental decay and periodontitis.

Periodontitis is a disease affecting gums and bone that support the teeth, and it results from inadequate tooth brushing and flossing.  In this disease, the irritated gums pull away from the teeth and form pockets between the teeth and the gums. These pockets fill with bacteria and pus which give off a foul odor.

Patients with bad breath need a complete dental evaluation by Dr. Major.  If gum disease and/or dental decay is diagnosed, it can be treated readily.  Patients will no longer have an oral infection and the embarrassment of bad breath will be eliminated.

Please call our office at (423) 499-9300 if you have questions regarding halitosis.
