It can happen that we have an unpleasant mouth odor, but we do not understand it for many reasons.

The main reason for the unpleasant smell? Lack of hygiene, not changing the toothbrush for a long time or a broken tooth / tooth.

While, in the worst case, the reason is "halitosis", the term used when bad breath is chronic and you should immediately consult a dentist.

Now, here are some simple ways to find out if you have bad breath:

# 1 - Lick the inside of the wrist, wait for 5-10 seconds and smell.

# 2 - Place your fingertip at the beginning of the tongue and then smell the finger.

# 3 - Breathe in a glass.

# 4 - Use dental floss and when you are done see if the floss smells bad. Remember to use dental floss to clean food between your teeth regularly, because that way, you also avoid unpleasant odors.

# 5 - Consult a dentist. He can give you a test or tell you directly the reason behind the unpleasant smell.
