The coatings or biofilms mainly occur on the tongue surface, teeth and gum pockets, back of the throat past the gag reflex, and in the nasal passages. As all these areas are connected, once a person has a case of chronic bad breath or halitosis (as it is medically known) all the biofilms need to be treated for any success to occur. This biofilm removal must also be done as well as changing of the mouth bacteria to a good probiotic bacteria level that is able to defend the mouth and stop the problem occuring again.

Treatment for Bad Breath
So treatment for bad breath involves a three pronged attack:

1. Change the mouth bacteria to a good probiotic bacteria that defends itself. These bacteria ideally should consume carbohydrates to prevent the breakdown to amino acids and waste products such as sulphur compounds. Two percent of the world's population are borne with such a bacteria in their mouths. The rest of us ned to have a dietary supplement to have use of this probiotic.
2. Remove the biofilms where the bad breath bacteria live. Science has shown that bad breath bacteria do not bind to the teeth or tongue but rather to the coatings that build up on these surfaces. Further the coatings (biofilms) need to be more than 24 hours old to be able to support bad breath bacteria. This means a concerted program of biofilm removal performed every day will ensure the least amount of offensive bacteria and thus offesnive smells.
3. Change lifestyle factors that promoted the bad breath in the first place. Pathogenic bacteria and also bad breath bacteria prefer to live in an acid mouth. So the lower the pH (more acidic) of the mouth the more bad breath bacteria. Things that stimulate acid mouth are lifestyle choices such as diet or sports drinks, coffee smoking and alcohol to name a few. The list is far longer and is explained in more detail in our treatment kits.
