If persistent bad breath is affecting your confidence, you may be dealing with a condition called halitosis. Fortunately, at Your Dental Bryant Park, we offer effective bad breath treatment in NYC to help you eliminate the issue and restore your fresh breath.
Bad Breath/Halitosis Treatment in NYC
Chronic bad breath, also known as halitosis, is a common issue that affects about 1 in 4 people worldwide. This condition occurs when bacteria accumulate in your mouth over time, leading to unpleasant odors that can’t be fully resolved with over-the-counter products like mouthwash or mints. These solutions may temporarily mask the problem but don’t address the root cause.
At Your Dental Bryant Park, we offer professional halitosis treatment in NYC that targets the source of bad breath. Our approach includes a thorough cleaning and oral cleansing, reaching areas that standard brushing and flossing might miss. In some cases, deep cleaning procedures like scaling and root planing are necessary to remove bacteria trapped beneath the gum line. Additionally, tongue scraping can be beneficial if the tongue is contributing to the issue.
