At your consultation you will be asked questions to help determine the possible causes of the odor, and then compare the odor coming from your mouth and nose. In most cases (about 85-95%) , the odor comes from the mouth rather than the nose. This is an indication that bacterial activity somewhere in the mouth is responsible. If the odor comes mostly from the nose, then the nasal passages may be involved. You may also undergo a diagnostic examination with a halimeter, this instrument measures the level of sulphide compounds in your breath. Since high levels of Volatile sulphur compounds are often associated with bad breath, this information is useful in developing a treatment plan for the treatment of your Mouth Odor. |
