Persistent bad breath

Water is highly important for saliva production, as it helps rinse away bacteria and maintain the health of our teeth and gums. In fact, the lack of water inhibits saliva production, causing bacteria to build up on the tongue, teeth, and gums, and that’s how we get bad breath.

If you practice proper oral hygiene but continue to suffer from chronic bad breath, it’s highly possible you’re not drinking enough water. We’d strongly advise you to make an appointment with your doctor and check if your bad breath remains after increasing your water intake. Otherwise, you’ll have to consider other possible causes, such as gum disease, type 2 diabetes, and liver and kidney issues.
