Fresh Breath in Chorley

Item: Eccleston Dental
Author: Lucie Parr

Bad breath is a very common problem and there are many different causes. Bad breath can be improved by following a daily oral hygiene regime and cutting down on sugary foods and drinks. Regular trips to the hygienist will also ensure your plaque levels are kept under control.

Causes of bad breath include:

Chronic bad breath usually has an underlying medical cause such as throat, nose or lung infections and sinusitis, bronchitis, gastro-intestinal conditions or diabetes.
Poor dental hygiene. Without regular brushing and flossing, bacteria and bits of food can get trapped in between your teeth, which release an unpleasant odour after some time.
Smoking.
Consuming strong, odorous foods like garlic, onions and coffee.

If you are aware that your breath is not as fresh as you would like it to be, make an appointment with the hygienist for some advice and assistance.

"Great dental practice. I have been coming here since 2023 and have had multiple treatments- fillings, whitening, check ups and hygienist appointments and have been seen by multiple staff. All of the staff are great at what they do and are very kind and go the extra mile. They explain everything they are doing and always put me at ease. This makes such a difference to me, as I have had a fear of going to the dentist since being young. The reception staff are lovely, they are always so helpful and they remember me every time I go there 😊 highly recommend. "
