If you’ve just eaten a slice of garlic bread or you’ve been drinking coffee all day, you probably aren’t too surprised when your family member cringes after speaking with you. However, if you just didn’t eat any strong-smelling foods or just brushed your teeth, you should be concerned if your breath continues to smell. Foul-smelling breath even after brushing indicates something else is wrong.
According to your dentist in Vero Beach, these are a few of the reasons you have chronic bad breath.
According to the American Academy of Oral Medicine, the death rate of oral and oropharyngeal cancers remains high mainly because of how common they’re discovered late in development. That means by visiting your dentist in Vero Beach regularly, you can dramatically reduce your chances of developing oral cancer before it’s too late.
April is Oral Cancer Awareness Month, so your dentist thought it would be a good time to help patients protect themselves by learning about oral cancer, taking note of the warning signs, and explain the importance of regular visits.
