Halitosis

Halitosis: Bad breath is embarrassing. But curable.

No false shame: in the tooth loft you get rid of your bad breath.

He’s the sympathy killer par excellence: bad breath. And he’s sneaky. For those affected usually do not even smell anything, while acquaintances prefer distance rather than pointing to it – halitosis, so the technical term, is a taboo subject. It is estimated that about a quarter of the population feels sorry for it, but it does not stop there. All the more important, therefore, are contact points in which professional help can be provided. Zahnloft is one of those.

Crime scene in the oral cavity

In 90 percent of all cases, the cause of bad breath is in the oral cavity, where bacteria multiply well in a warm, humid climate. They feel comfortable in gum pockets, in interdental spaces and in the back of the tongue. There they feed on the remains of high-protein and sugary foods such as meat, fish, eggs, dairy products or chocolate and release malodorous sulfur compounds. Poor oral hygiene, inflammation of the gums, periodontitis or tooth damage can also cause putrid breath.

Measure bad breath. Fighting bad breath.

The Zahnloft analyses the composition of your breath using a so-called halimeter: The electronic device measures the gaseous compounds in your mouth precisely and objectively and records the values with special software. This results in the appropriate methods, which can be carried out immediately in the dental loft. Whether it is a professional tooth and tongue cleaning with the aim of cleaning all niches from bacteria, special rinsing solutions, a caries therapy or a periodontitis treatment.
