Patient's question:
Halitosis, bad breath in saliva, poor stomach digestion, and small, sticky bowel movements. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
Gastrointestinal issues are one of the reasons that can lead to bad breath. Poor oral hygiene can cause the accumulation of dental calculus, which may result in periodontal disease and consequently trigger bad breath. It is recommended that you visit the dental department of a hospital in time to check the condition of your periodontium, observe the color, shape, and texture of your gums, and test for Helicobacter pylori. This will help to confirm the diagnosis and provide timely and appropriate treatment.In addition, during the treatment of bad breath, besides taking medication, the patient's dietary habits and mental state are also particularly important. The patient must always maintain a positive mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery from bad breath.
