Fresh Breath For The Holidays: The Dental Connection!

Not only during the Holidays, but everyday of the year, many people are concerned about bad breath.  Today's BLOG focuses in on what to do to keep your pearly whites clean and your breath minty fresh!

Naturally, good oral hygiene is the first step.  With proper brushing and flossing, you can keep bad breath in check. Remember, that even if you are brushing two minutes twice daily and flossing, many people forget to brush their tongue, which can harbor odor-producing bacteria as well!

Other common causes include:

  • Tobacco
  • A Dry Mouth
  • Sinus Issues
  • Certain Medications
  • Certain Foods
  • Gum Disease

Remember that visiting our office twice a year for cleanings and exams can keep your breath in tip top shape! If you are in need of an appointment, call us at 918-455-0123!

God Bless,
