Patient's question:
Over the past year, I have noticed some hard, yellowish-white substances in the gaps between my teeth. I want to remove these hard substances, but every time I try, it tears my gums. Sometimes, after removing them, I can smell a foul odor. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Yes, tartar can cause bad breath and requires regular dental cleaning treatment at the oral hospital. If it's severe, it can also lead to crushed damage and tooth loss. It is recommended to maintain good oral hygiene, brush your teeth in the morning and evening, eat light foods, consume fruits, and always keep a positive mood. Rest well, avoid overexertion, and don't stay up late. If you feel unwell, seek medical attention or undergo tests to rule out factors caused by the illness.In addition to symptomatic treatment during the treatment for bad breath, the patient's dietary condition and mental state are also particularly important. Patients must avoid excessive mental stress and anxiety to prevent unnecessary interference in the complete recovery from bad breath.
