Mint leaves can sometimes neutralize the smell. You may also want her to check how she’s brushing or flossing. If her gums are bleeding, bad breath can emanate from that as well.
Halitosis can also be neutralized by having the individual brush their tongue more. The flat of the tongue and especially the back part is where most of the smell originates from.
Air circulation through the nostrils can cause the tongue to dry out creating that smell. If she has poor hygeine and she’s brushing her teeth to where there’s blood, that dried blood can cause that smell.
If she’s flossing properly, she can strengthen her gums so that they’ll stop bleeding. If they’re still tender, they’ll bleed leading to that smell but it will go away as long as she remains consistent.
This student isn’t brushing the right spots or this student is doing it wrong or this student isn’t using a good enough tooth paste. Make sure that (s)he brushes her tounge and gums along with her/his teeth. Colgate Total works well too. Never hurt to have a listerine pocket pack breath strips on you or a thing of tic-tacs either.
give her chewing gum everytime you start your class
brushing 2 to 3 times a day alone will not solve this problem.
if she has small nose(sinus problems).that will create bad breath.
if her mouth is dry(with very less saliva) that will result in bad breath.
her wrong food habits like(biscuits,garlic,onion) too account for the bad breath.
ask her to take more water,stop taking those smelling food items and even non veg items,
also have a check with the ent specialists. the last thing to do is to have a cleaning of the entire mouth by the dentist.this will remove the tartar or yellow marks in the teeth
Brushing, flossing, Listerine, regular dental check-ups.
Not chewing food thoroughly when eating is also a cause of bad breath. Large chunks of food sent to the stomach actually causes fermentation within the stomach, forcing the act of digestion on the small intestine (where you get gas/bloating). The "smell" then travels back up the esophagus and out of the mouth, where you are forced to smell it.
Ask her if she chews her food for at least 30 seconds after each bite. If the answer is no, then there’s your culprit.
If her breath isn’t improved with good oral hygiene, the problem is quite literally deeper than that.
First, is she otherwise healthy? Bad breath can be a symptom of underlying disease. So, if she is in a position to do so, a physical exam might be in order.
Beyond that, there are two supplements that can help bad breath…chlorophyll taken with meals and activated charcoal taken about 1 hour before meals. She could try either one…or both.
your students should take a strong mouthwash like Listerine Antiseptic and consult to their doctor for proper caring.
go to the dentist and have a deep cleaning. then wash mouth out daily with LISTERINE. And when brushing brush teeth, gums, tongue, and back of tongue
