Bad breath treatment

Do you suffer from bad breath and are looking for an effective solution?

Chronic bad breath can not only be stressful for the person affected, but also pose a great challenge to personal and social life. Kissing, speaking and being with other people become a real burden. But don't worry, we are here to help you. With Dr. med. dent. Barbara Lehmann you are in the best hands when it comes to treating bad breath.

Why bad breath occurs

Bad breath, also called halitosis, is most often caused by bacteria in the mouth. These bacteria break down food particles and cellular waste, producing sulfur-containing gases. These gases are responsible for the unpleasant smell. However, bad breath can also be caused by other factors such as poor oral hygiene, gum disease, tartar, tooth decay, dry mouth, certain gastrointestinal diseases or even certain foods.

The individual diagnosis

At Dr. med. dent. Barbara Lehmann, we place great importance on a thorough and individual diagnosis to determine the exact cause of your bad breath. Our experienced dentist will examine your teeth and gums closely and may carry out further tests to determine the exact reason for your bad breath. Based on this diagnosis, we will then create a customized treatment plan to effectively combat your bad breath.

Our bad breath treatment methods

Our goal is to help you regain a fresh and confident smile. That's why we offer a variety of treatment methods to effectively treat bad breath. Here are some of our proven approaches:

1. Professional teeth cleaning: A thorough cleaning of your teeth and gums by our specialized dental hygienists is the first step in combating bad breath. Stubborn plaque and tartar, which collect bacteria, are removed to reduce bacterial growth.

2. Periodontal treatment: If periodontitis, an inflammation of the periodontal ligament, is the cause of your bad breath, we will recommend specific periodontal therapy. By thoroughly cleaning the gum pockets and treating the inflammation, we can restore your oral health and effectively combat bad breath.

3. Caries treatment: Caries can also cause bad breath. Our dentist will identify areas of caries and recommend appropriate treatment and prevention measures to reduce bad breath.

4. Saliva stimulation and supplementation: A dry mouth promotes the growth of bacteria that cause bad breath. We will recommend methods to stimulate saliva and, if necessary, prescribe special saliva supplement products to keep your mouth sufficiently moist.

5. Individual advice and care instructions: Our friendly and experienced staff will give you comprehensive information on oral hygiene and valuable tips on preventing bad breath. We will show you how to take optimal care of your teeth and mouth in order to maintain fresh breath in the long term.
