destroy them the residue of saliva on teeth as well as dentures can undergo bacte rial decomposition yielding foul breath Frequent brushing and floss can prevent halitosis in these circumstances Dental Infection such as and gingivitis also leads to bad breath Eating certain foods notably onions and garlic also causes breath odor People with halitosis due to mouth problems can often be helped by their dentist Halitosis can also be caused by medical conditions and diseases These include lung abscesses liver failure kidney disease diabetes can cer tonsillitis and sinus infection People who smoke and drink too much frequently have unpleasant breath odor Intestinal conditions such as poor digestion or constipation do not cause halitosis These disorders are some times associated with foul eructation belching but they do not affect the breath Bromides are compounds derived from bromine a chemical resembling chlorine They were once widely used in sleeping pills and are still to some over
