Anyone who has struggled with the problem of halitosis knows how challenging it can be to find a bad breath solution. Fortunately, this area of medical treatment, ignored for so long by everyone except the producers of mouthwashes and breath mints, is enjoying considerable close attention these days; things started to improve when we learned where the foul odor of bad breath really came from. It was the first step to developing treatments that work.

Dr. J. Tonzetich may have earned the distinction of being the first bad breath doctor when he worked out the process by which bad breath is produced in the mouth. The odor, he discovered, is caused by volatile sulfur compounds produced by bacteria in the mouth. The offensive bacteria are anaerobes, living in places in the mouth where there is little oxygen: in pockets between the gums and teeth, in the spaces between the teeth, around the tonsils, and deep between the papillae on the surface of the tongue at the back of the mouth. Understanding that these bacteria were responsible for the problem allowed researchers to start an informed search for a bad breath solution.

For most people, the appropriate bad breath doctor will be either a dentist or a medical doctor. These are the professionals who can do a proper assessment of a patient's dental and physical health to determine why the anaerobes are doing so well in the mouth. There may be periodontal disease, a sinus condition, a problem around the tonsils, post nasal drip, or even a more serious undiagnosed disease condition that requires treatment. It's important that halitosis sufferers have their condition evaluated by medical professionals before attempting their own bad breath solution.

Sometimes, there is a true bad breath doctor who can be consulted. Again, these are usually former dentists or medical doctors who have taken a special interest in helping people to find a bad breath solution. These professionals may have done their own research and developed an approach to treatment that has had considerable success. They generally operate clinics and see patients by appointment like any doctor's office. Proper assessment will include verifying that the patient truly does have a bad breath problem and checking for signs of all the problems mentioned above. Referral to a doctor or dentist may result if that appears appropriate. If you think a bad breath clinic might be the right choice for you, see if you can find one in your area - unfortunately they are quite rare.

If you are considering self-treatment of halitosis, think about trying a product recommended by a clinic bad breath doctor. Though the clinic may be inaccessible to you, the products are often available by mail or over the internet. Clinic products generally have a good reputation and a money back guarantee. You are more likely to find a bad breath solution with one of these providers than with products and vendors you know nothing about. Again however, it would be wise to consult a dentist, and possibly a medical doctor about your problem before embarking on any course of self-treatment.
