Patient's question:
I noticed that my child has bad breath for a long time. I make him wash his face in the morning and at night, but I don't know why he still has bad breath. The doctor said it's caused by indigestion. Now, what methods can be used to treat it?Doctor's answer:
First, to prevent indigestion. When indigestion occurs again, you can take appropriate amounts of digestive aids and gastrointestinal motility drugs. Pay attention to prevention and timely treatment for dental caries and misaligned teeth. Eat less sweet food, especially avoid it before bed.Second, pay great attention to oral hygiene. Brush and rinse your mouth diligently every morning, before bed, and after meals. When necessary, gently brush the tongue with toothpaste or a clean cloth. Under normal circumstances, children will not have bad breath. Although bad breath is not a serious illness, it may be a warning sign of a disease or caused by improper feeding, so it should be taken seriously.
Those with bad breath can, while seeking symptomatic treatment, also use dietary therapy as supplementary treatment. In daily diet, avoid being overly hungry or full, and never overeat or binge drink.
