I repeatedly receive correspondence from folks questioning if there is a Bad Breath Test that they can perform on themselves.
In point of fact, there are a few methods that seem to work for those who have tried them..
One technique is to breathe on one of your hands. As you do this, you can sniff in to see if you can detect any bad breath odor.
My research for "The Bad Breath Treatment Guide" taught me that bad breath can be caused by saliva.
Due to the fact saliva may be the cause of breath odor, slightly lick your wrist. Give it a few seconds and then take a whiff. If you don't detect an odor, you probably have nothing to worry about.
Here's another technique that's successfully been used as a bad breath test: Use a spoon as a tongue scraper. Scrape one by one equally the the back and front of your tongue.. You can tell if you have breath odor by taking a whiff of the spoon.
One other suggestion --, when you have a chance to be alone and look into the mirror, just take a brief moment to look at your teeth. Do you notice any black spots on your teeth? If you do, chances are pretty good you have bad breath.
There is no doubt, however, the most efficient way is to just ask someone you feel close to. A person you both trust and who cares about you.
Bad breath can destroy a social life. It makes it difficult to keep friends. As you might expect, it is particularly damaging for a single person seeking a serious relationship.
Bad breath is very hard on relationships. Couples have ended up in divorce court due to breath problems.
Halitosis has harmed numerous careers. Think about it, do you want to sit close to someone who emits breath odor every time they talk? Neither does anyone else.
Bad breath can be a sign of a serious medical problem, such as kidney disease, liver disease,, pancreatic problems and faulty insulin levels, and/or other serious medical problems.
On the other hand, for for most folks, bad breath does not signal a serious medical condition..
There are numerous home remedies such as diet regimes, nutritional vitamins and natural herbs that can totally eliminate foul breath.
Many have used homemade natural gargles and rinses that have worked wonders for them. These natural rinses and gargles keep the mouth fresh and reduce harmful bacteria that cause breath odor.
If you are seeking a good bad breath test, I hope I have answered your question. I have done quite a bit of research on this subject. Consequently, I understand what a tough personal problem that it is to have to deal with.
