What is Bad Breath?
Bad breath is actually an element that can be much more attractive than the image or create the opposite effect. People’s tastes are shaped by visuals. When examining their environment, individuals first consider their aesthetic appearance and have an opinion about mouth odours. After the visual elements, mouth odors come into play.
For example; There is a type of memory called olfactory memory in humans, and individuals can identify certain experiences or concepts to which they attribute value with characteristic odors in their minds. Smell, which is so important in human life, can sometimes be the main reason for negative situations.
Bad breath, which can make the lives of individuals unhappy and limit their social lives, is actually a problem that can be included in the oral problems that cause aesthetic deprivation; because bad breath is a dental health and dental aesthetic problem that must be treated absolutely. Yes, when smile aesthetics is mentioned, we come across a concrete aesthetic appearance, but if a mouth with an aesthetic appearance emits a bad smell, this situation will be more prominent and will overshadow that aesthetic smile.
