bad breath appear in the morning
You thoroughly brushed your teeth, rinsed your mouth, used a toothpick and floss, and in the morning you still get an unpleasant odor in your mouth?
The reason is not poor dental care, but bacteria that prefer the moist, warm environment of our mouth. Propagating microbes that produce stinking compounds are the main culprits of the bad smell, which, unfortunately, nothing can be done.
The best thing is to brush your teeth when you wake up. Toothpaste and rinse aid containing ingredients such as xylitol, triclosan and essential oils create an unfavorable environment for bacteria. But the effects of these ingredients are short-lived. After some time, all these substances are washed off, and the bacteria begin to multiply again.
Why is the situation getting worse at night? The thing is that at night the production of saliva is significantly reduced and the liquid that washes off these bacteria is present in very small quantities. As a result, for many hours the “odorous” concentration increases and creates an unpleasant odor.
This is not a matter of several foul-smelling compounds, but of a multitude of types that colonize different areas of the mouth. Scientists estimate that there are more bacteria in our mouths than people on Earth. Decomposition of germs leads to bad breath.
Some amino acids that bacteria feed on contain sulfur, which promotes a bad smell. In addition, the components of bad breath are: cadaverine (smell of a corpse), hydrogen sulfide (smell of rotten eggs), isovalerianic acid (smell of sweaty feet), methyl mercaptan (smell of excrement), putrescine (smell of rotting meat) and trimethylamine (smell of decaying fish).
We can say that the worst smells that you can imagine are collected in our mouth. Why is it that some people have an unpleasant odor that is very strong, while others that are barely perceptible?
In young, healthy people with strong immunity, bacteria find it harder to survive on the oral mucosa. In people who are weakened, sick, who do not monitor the purity of the oral cavity - the smell is stronger. Often, bad breath from the baby's mouth is for the attentive mother the first sign of an impending disease.
