The Fundamentals of Bad Breath

The Fundamentals of Bad Breath

When you experience bad breath, it is a biological reaction to your body's release of volatile sulfur into the atmosphere. This includes sulfur, hydrogen sulfide and methyl marcaptan.

Release of foul odors occurs when food remains in your mouth after brushing. The most common offender is food left in between your teeth. These small bits of food begin to rot and start to smell.
