Bad Breath Treatment
What is Bad Breath Treatment?
Persistent bad breath, or halitosis, can be socially distressing and may also signal underlying dental or medical problems. Common oral causes include gum disease, tongue coating, dry mouth, decayed teeth, food impaction and ill fitting restorations that trap debris. Successful treatment therefore requires more than just mouthwash, chewing gum or breath fresheners, which only mask odours for a short time.
Why Choose Bad Breath Treatment at Inci Dis?
Inci Dis approaches bad breath with a structured diagnostic process. We evaluate your gums, tongue, existing fillings and prosthetics, as well as your saliva flow, diet and oral hygiene habits. When necessary, we may recommend professional cleaning, periodontal therapy, replacement of faulty restorations or specific tongue cleaning techniques. If we suspect non dental causes such as sinus, respiratory or gastrointestinal issues, we will advise you to seek appropriate medical evaluation and can provide a summary for your physician.
How the Process Works
Our dentists also take time to discuss lifestyle factors like smoking, alcohol, hydration and certain diets, as these often play a role in halitosis. Together, we develop a personalised plan that combines in clinic treatment with simple daily routines you can follow at home. For international patients, we can usually start the key treatments during your stay and then give you a written summary of findings and recommendations to share with your doctor or dentist once you are back home.
