Severe bad breath can have a profound effect on your lifestyle. Severe bad
breath can be caused by periodontal disease or poor oral health care. Your
dentist should have alerted you to such problems. If you don't see a dentist on
a regular basis, it's up to you to take extra care of your mouth. Bacteria
in your mouth will find trapped food particles and break them down causing the
bad odor. Take the time to keep your mouth particularly clean after meals.
Chewing a sugar free mint gum and rinsing your mouth after meals will help.
Other common causes of severe bad breath might include other health problems
like infections in your sinuses or respiratory system. Kidney problems can also
effect your breath.
