We’ve all experienced the discomfort of chatting with someone who has bad breath. Fear of being that poor, ignorant (or helpless) person making everyone scoot back might even make you anxious. If you’ve been told you have bad breath or are self-conscious on your own, don’t worry! There is actually a lot you can do to freshen your breath beyond popping a breath mint. These cures focus on treating the source of the issue, rather than masking a symptom.
Ok, so we know that saliva is not the most popular conversation topic. But, believe it or not, saliva is the unsung hero of your oral health! It’s an essential defense against bacteria and decay, aids in digestion, protects your teeth, helps you taste, and reduces pain. Read on to discover 6 surprising things you never knew about your saliva.
Thinking about skipping your next dental check-up? You should reconsider! Tooth pain or inflamed gums aren’t the only reasons to go see your dentist. Your dentist can be a surprising source of information about your overall health. Even diseases that aren’t commonly associated with your mouth can cause symptoms there. Early detection for many conditions can make the difference in saving your life!
