Patient's question:
I have had bad breath since middle school, and it has never been completely eliminated until now. I heard that putting tea leaves in your mouth and chewing them can help stabilize the condition—is that true? Also, I heard that using ultrasonic tooth cleaning can also help stabilize bad breath? Many people say that you should seek medical treatment at a hospital, but I feel too embarrassed to go to the hospital. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
According to your condition, to treat bad breath, you first need to identify the cause. Bad breath is generally caused by gum disease or other conditions, as well as absorption disorders or improper dietary habits, such as a preference for cold drinks, etc. It is recommended that you first adjust your lifestyle and dietary structure, while also paying attention to rest and increasing activity to boost metabolism to stabilize the condition. There are many methods for treating bad breath, but since symptoms vary among patients, the treatment methods will also differ. Therefore, it is advised that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as symptoms are noticed.
