Over 60
million people suffer from Halitosis. With that many people suffering
from it, it is nothing to be ashamed of. Contrary to the commercials you
see on TV and the ads you read, mints, mouthwash and regular toothpaste
will NOT solve the problem. It most likely will make it worse!
It's no
one's fault they have bad breath. In fact, most people with halitosis
are so concerned about it that they tend to have far better oral hygiene
practices than the average person.
According
to the most current research over 90 percent of all cases of chronic bad
breath originate in the mouth, NOT in the stomach, sinuses or lungs. Virtually
all cases of bad breath are caused by volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs).
These bacteria are normal and should be there. Bad breath is a result
of sulfur gas created from the breakdown of proteins found in food.
The source
of these compounds is bacteria in the mouth breaking down the cell wall
of dead cells. These anaerobic bacteria collect and multiply mainly on
the tongue. They thrive in a dry, dark environment such as under the gums,
the spaces between the teeth and the crevices of the tongue.
These bacteria
are active in inflammation of the gum (gingivitis) and gum disease (periodontitis).
While these bacteria are causing gum disease and destroying bone, they
are also producing VSCs that cause bad breath.
The solution
is Chlorine Dioxide which is a concentrated form of oxygen
that has proven to kill the bacteria and dissolve the Sulfer compounds
while leaving the beneficial aerobic bacteria.
