Persistent bad breath is almost always a sign of an underlying dental or gum health issue. Our Periodontist, Dr. Avinash, will identify the exact cause and eliminate it — permanently.
Mouthwash only masks the problem. True treatment starts with finding the root cause.
The bacteria that cause gum disease release sulphur compounds — the most common cause of chronic bad breath. This cannot be fixed by brushing alone.
Decayed teeth harbour bacteria in areas that are impossible to clean, producing persistent odour that no amount of mouthwash can reach.
Saliva is your mouth's natural self-cleaning mechanism. Without enough of it, bacteria multiply rapidly — often linked to mouth breathing.
The back of the tongue is a major reservoir for odour-causing bacteria — often overlooked in standard oral hygiene routines.
Ill-fitting dentures create pockets and folds where food and bacteria accumulate, causing a persistent unpleasant odour.
In rare cases, conditions like diabetes, GERD, or sinus infections can produce bad breath. Our team will identify if a medical referral is needed.
Our approach is diagnostic first. We find the cause, then eliminate it.
A thorough examination of your gums, teeth, and tongue to identify the exact source.
Scaling and root planing to remove hardened tartar and bacterial deposits from below the gumline.
Fill cavities, treat gum disease, or address dry mouth and mouth breathing as required.
Personalised guidance on brushing technique, flossing, tongue cleaning, and diet to keep it gone.
