There are two
types
of bad breath |
Transitory bad breath is caused by foods
like garlic and onions and generally only lasts from 24 to
72 hours.
Chronic bad breath does not improve over
time. The "odor" of chronic bad breath results
when bacteria in the mouth and on the tongue cause the
formation of volatile sulfur compounds (VSC's) in the form
of hydrogen sulfides. This may be an ongoing problem requiring
professional breath management.

BreathRx fights
both the cause
and the effect of bad breath. |
BreathRx contains ZYTEX™, a
unique and powerful complex that fights bad breath by reducing
the foul smelling volatile sulfur compounds which provide
the "odor" of bad breath. Meanwhile, our active
ingredient (Cetylpyridinium Chloride) kills the
Gram-negative organisms responsible for the production of
VSC's.

Now, even chronic
bad breath can be effectively managed. |
There is no permanent cure for the cause
of 90% of chronic bad breath. But now, thanks to BreathRx,
the freshest possible breath can become a daily reality.
In some instances, chronic bad breath is
actually caused by underlying medical conditions like
diabetes, sinusitis or emphysema. And in those rare
situations, treating the disease could possibly eliminate
the cause of the bad breath. Fortunately, your dental professional
can help diagnose the various types and causes of bad
breath.

Products that
only mask bad
breath are bad news. |
Most over-the-counter products do not
eliminate bad breath. They can only hide it temporarily.
An independent study of fifteen mouthwash products showed
that while they all masked bad breath after ten minutes,
only a few were still working after a few hours1.
And when it comes to something as
important as your breath, you shouldn't rely on something
that can let you down at any moment. Also, most mouthwash
products contain alcohol that dries soft oral tissue and
ultimately leads to even faster formation of odor-causing
bacteria.

Even good friends
won't tell you about your bad breath. |
We've all had friends, relatives and
co-workers with less than fresh breath. We turn away when
they talk, or shy away when they kiss. Why? Because
there's just no easy way to bring up such a sensitive
subject.
But the situation is far from hopeless.
Your dental professional can assess your individual
situation and provide the BreathRx products to help you
maintain the freshest breath possible.
