Bad Breath Solutions
Eat a Proper Diet - Diet plays a role in dental hygiene, as appropriate food and drink can support proper saliva flow to help limit the possibility of halitosis. Fibrous foods have been known to help maintain a healthy mouth. Eating a healthy breakfast every morning helps initiate saliva flow after a night's sleep when bacteria and odor can build. Drinking sufficient water is also important to help limit bad breath.
Drinks that are high in sugar and acid such as sodas and juices do not a support a healthy breath environment.
Exercise Good Dental Hygiene - Key to deterring halitosis is dental hygiene. The most common culprit is food debris that has lodged between teeth or around gums, creating an ideal bad breath bacterial environment. Brushing your teeth twice daily and flossing between each tooth daily are the minimum requirements.
Brushing and flossing are particularly important after high protein meals or other meals that trigger foul breath and dehydration.
Selecting an antiseptic mouthwash to gargle with and using it before bedtime is particularly helpful in reducing bacteria growth during sleep. Antiseptic mouthwash ingredients include chlorhexidine and oils (like eucalyptus oil) etc.
Tongue scrapers can also be useful in managing bad breath. It is important to gently scrape the mucous off the back of the tongue, where bacteria may be present. Gentle tongue scraping is extremely important to prevent damage to the tongue.
Finally, it is important for individuals who have appliances such as dental braces and dentures to follow the specific instructions for these appliances to avoid bad breath, especially when it comes to removable appliances at night.
Consider These Bad Breath Aids - Straws are useful in sending sugary or sticky liquids past the teeth and tongue. Straws are especially useful for the elderly, small children, and disabled people, who may have difficulty maintaining proper dental hygiene. For individuals suffering from dry mouth, there are over-the-counter products and pharmaceutical medications that can help reduce its effects.
If you have bad breath, discolored mucous, colored blotches, or bumps on your tongue, it may be a sign of a more serious medical condition such as oral cancer. It is best to see a medical doctor and dentist to evaluate your halitosis.

Porcelein Crown & Bridges(Fixed Partial Dentures)
Dental Crowns & Bridges
Dental crowns, also known as “caps,” preserve the functionality of damaged teeth. Crowns may be used to protect a cracked tooth, restore functionality of a tooth with excessive decay, or replace a pre-existing crown. The purpose of a dental crown is to encase a needy tooth with a custom-designed material.
The Clinical Procedure
During the crown procedure, your dentist prepares the tooth and makes a molded impression of the teeth to send to a dental laboratory. A fitted, temporary crown is created during this visit to temporarily protect the tooth while the final restoration is being made in the dental laboratory. Once completed, the crown is cemented at a later visit.
A recent technology, CAD/CAM technology (computer-aided design/manufacturing technology) has evolved to display a 3-D picture of the teeth. A restoration is then created through milling of a ceramic block. If this technology is located in the dental office (chair-side CAD/CAM), there will be no need for a temporary crown or return visit for the final cementation.
Fixed Partial Dentures, Dental Implants and Crowns
Fixed partial dentures (aka dental bridges) are an extension of the dental crown treatment for replacement of missing teeth. Crowns are placed on the teeth adjacent to the missing tooth or teeth and connected to a missing tooth-like replica. Although fixed partial dentures may serve as a functional and esthetic restoration, today’s treatment-of-choice for a missing tooth or teeth is with dental implants. A dental implant replaces missing teeth with a titanium root replica. A crown is then placed on the implant above the gumline. Dental implants are a very predictable treatment choice, returning support to the bite and preventing the need for the unnecessary crowning of adjacent teeth.
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a "root" device made of titanium that resembles a tooth and is used to replace a single tooth or group of teeth.
Virtually all dental implants placed today are root-form i.e., they appear similar to an actual tooth root. The bone of the jaw osseointegrates with the titanium post. Osseointegration refers to the fusion of the implant surface with the surrounding bone. Dental implants will fuse with bone, however they lack the periodontal ligament, so they will feel slightly different than natural teeth during chewing.
Full Mouth Dentures
Bio-functional Prosthetic System full mouth dentures are provided;
Benefits over other normal dentures:
- Enhanced Esthetics
- Great Stability because of strong suction and adaptability
- No ulcers or denture sores.
Flexible Partial Dentures
Root Canal Therapy
A root canal is a dental procedure to remove dead or dying nerve tissue and bacteria from inside a tooth.
A dentist will use a needle to place numbing medicine (anesthetic) around the bad tooth. You may feel a slight prick when the needle is being inserted.
Next, your dentist uses a tiny drill to remove the top part of your tooth and expose the pulp. Pulp is made up of nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. It is found inside the tooth and runs to the jaw bone. Pulp supplies blood to a tooth and allows you to feel sensations such as temperature.
The infected pulp is removed with special tools called files. The canals (tiny pathways inside the tooth) are cleaned. Medicines may be placed into the area to make sure all the germs are gone and prevent further infection.
The cleaned tooth area is sealed with a soft, temporary material. Once the tooth is filled, a permanent crown may be placed on top.
You may be given antibiotics to treat and prevent infection.
A root canal is done if you have an infection that affects the nerve in the root of a tooth. Generally, there is pain and swelling in the area. The infection can be the result of a tooth crack, cavity, or injury.
A root canal can save your tooth. Without treatment, the tooth may become so damaged that it must be removed.
Minor Surgical Third Molar(Wisdom Tooth) Extraction
Wisdom teeth are a valuable asset to the mouth when they are healthy and properly positioned. Often, however, problems develop that require their removal. When the jaw isn't large enough to accommodate wisdom teeth, they can become impacted (unable to come in or misaligned) Wisdom teeth may grow sideways, emerge only part way through the gum or remain trapped beneath the gum and bone.
Extraction of third molars is generally recommended:
PAIN
Surgical removal of the third molars can lead to some discomfort and pain. This is usually treated with pain medication.
INFECTION
Because of the large number of bacteria present in the mouth post surgical infection is always possible. Patients are usually placed on prophylactic antibiotics to prevent infections from developing.
SWELLING
Following surgery patients may experience swelling and bruising. These symptome vary between patients.
BLEEDING
Some post surgical bleeding is considered normal. This is usually minimal and is easily controlled with the pressure of biting on gauze.

Minor Surgical Third Molar(Wisdom Tooth) Extraction
Wisdom teeth are a valuable asset to the mouth when they are healthy and properly positioned. Often, however, problems develop that require their removal. When the jaw isn't large enough to accommodate wisdom teeth, they can become impacted (unable to come in or misaligned) Wisdom teeth may grow sideways, emerge only part way through the gum or remain trapped beneath the gum and bone.
Extraction of third molars is generally recommended:
- When wisdom teeth only partially erupt;
- When there is a chance that poorly aligned wisdom teeth will damage adjacent teeth;
When a cyst (fluid-filled sac) forms, destroying surrounding structures such as bone tooth roots. The most common reason people choose to remove their wisdom teeth is that their mouth is t too small for these teeth to normally erupt behind the second molare into a good position. This can result in one of the following situations:
- 1. Complete Bony Impaction when the wisdom teeth are completely covered in bone. When the tooth is completly covered with bone it will remain completly covered with its "developmental sack" in which all teeth develop. Later in life, this sack may undergo changes and enlarge and develop ionto a cyst. This cyst will enlarge at the expense of the bone of the jaw. These cysts should be removed and and examined by a pathologist. 2. Partial Bony Impaction whenThe teeth begin to erupt but are not able to erupt completely. In this situation, the upper third molars usually are poisitoned towards the cheek while the lower third molars usually lean forward with only part of the crown sticking through the gum. This situation can to decay and gum disease around the second molar directly in front of it.
The most common complication of the partial bony impaction, is that the flap of gum tissue which partially covers the erupting third molar, creates a pocket where bacteria that are present in the mouth can grow and and cause an infection known as pericoronitis. The swelling and infection can become very serious. The treatment for pericoronitis is extraction of the third molar.
PAIN
Surgical removal of the third molars can lead to some discomfort and pain. This is usually treated with pain medication.

Because of the large number of bacteria present in the mouth post surgical infection is always possible. Patients are usually placed on prophylactic antibiotics to prevent infections from developing.
