Q: “Does teeth cleaning improve bad breath?”

A: The best solution for bad breath is maintaining a healthy at-home dental cleaning routine. Regularly cleaning your teeth can improve and prevent bad breath. However, a regular visit to the dentist will do more to ensure those hard to reach spots are cleaned. Plus, your dental hygienist will check to make sure you don’t have any severe or rare conditions that may be causing bad breath. A trip to the dentist can also help rule out any other causes of bad breath and determine the steps to fight it. Finally, the dental hygienist will assist in teaching you the best cleaning methods for your teeth and gums. Learn more by contacting our dental office today!
