How to get rid of morning bad breath?

In the previous part, we looked into why bad breath gets worse in the morning based on what was explained in the paper.

This time, we will learn how to effectively remove morning bad breath.

Let’s get rid of morning bad breath efficiently.

There is no way to prevent bad breath in the morning. It is a self-evident fact that saliva secretion decreases while you sleep.

However, there is a way to prevent bacteria from spreading around when saliva is reduced.

This can be done by reducing the number of bacteria associated with bad breath.

–Clean the white coating on the back of the tongue.

The most effective method is to thoroughly clean the white coating on the back of the tongue, which has the most bacteria.

You can brush well with a regular toothbrush or tongue cleaner.

There is something to be careful about at this time. The point is that you shouldn’t brush too hard.

In some tongue cleaner advertisements, because the tongue has a bumpy shape, it is recommended to clean it by pressing hard or to use a tongue cleaner with a bumpy shape. However, cleaning like this may be temporarily effective, but it is not good in the long run.

Because it hurts your tongue. When tiny wounds accumulate on the tongue, they turn into deep grooves. Bacteria continue to settle inside it. A vicious cycle can develop.

Therefore, it is best to gently wipe away the white coating on the back of the tongue.

To put it simply, you can think of it as the same as scrubbing a bowl with a scrubber and leaving minor scratches on the bowl.

Toothbrushes with soft or mixed bristles are more suitable than ultra-soft/fine bristles. If you use a toothbrush that is too soft, it will not clean well. and, when using mixed toothbrush, do not use too much force. Softly~

– After waking up, Drink water

When you drink water after waking up, it moisturizes your mouth and increases saliva secretion, and the VSC concentration naturally decreases. (VSC stands for Volatile Sufur Compound, which is a major cause of bad breath gas.)

So, it is good to drink water often on a daily basis, and it is even better to drink water right after waking up.

Moisturize your mouth! please remember!

– Eat dietary fiber

When you wake up and eat breakfast, try eating foods rich in dietary fiber.

The characteristic of dietary fiber is that it must be chewed for a long time. And it has a tough structure with multiple branches.

So, the more you chew, the more saliva you secrete, and as you chew and swallow, that carry the debris between your teeth.

– Do not drink morning coffee or smoke in the morning.

Some people drink coffee or smoke cigarettes as soon as they wake up in the morning.

As soon as you wake up, the concentration of VSC (bad breath gas) in your mouth is already high, so it’s like setting fire to it.

Drink it at least after or with other breakfast items, and rinse several times with water afterwards.

–Brush your teeth and Use mouthwash before going to bed.

The best way to reduce the number of germs is to brush your teeth. And it’s even better if you use mouthwash ‘before’ brushing your teeth.

It is most important to brush your teeth before going to bed. If you find it difficult to brush your teeth more than twice a day, be sure to do so at least before going to bed. This will result in less cavities and less gum disease.

– Use dental floss

It’s really good to use dental floss when brushing your teeth before going to bed. Brushing your teeth doesn’t remove the food between your teeth as much as you might think. Especially when you brush your teeth, you may not be able to clean the area behind your molars. In this case, it is important to use dental floss to clean it well.

– Regular scaling

If you have gum disease, it can be difficult to control your morning bad breath. And there are a huge number of bacteria living inside tartar. So, be sure to go to the dentist regularly and get dental scaling done.

Today, we talked about eliminating morning bad breath.
