Question:

Best homeopathic treatment for chronic persistent bad breath?

Does anyone know of a proven remedy for bad breath, I,ve been suffering for 8 yrs and it has completely ruined my life. I,ve tried acid refulx meds, expensive thera breath system and have gone to several dentist and doctors and have been told that my mouth is clean dont have any diseases and they dont know why it is happening. I have deviated septum and my left nostril inside is blocked due to the swolen/deviated septum.


Answers:

Hmmmm .. Homeopathic remedies (Multiple treatments are given in the end: choose the one that matches your symptoms the most)

Take these precautions first:

* Proper cleaning or brushing of the teeth in the morning and at bedtime

* Clear saliva and nasal secretion often and avoid accumulations

* Hawk to clear the throat often, if there is throat infection or secretions

* Dental check-ups for filling pockets or erosions if any, or to rule out any other dental or gum problem
* Clean the tongue properly with tongue scraper if there is coating

* Drink plenty of water or drinks to maintain good body hydration. Also take plenty of water after every meal to wash away the presence of food particles in the mouth or throat or oesophagus

* Clean dentures (if any) properly with antiseptic solutions

Avoid:

* Stimulants such as alcohol, cigarettes and chewing tobacco

* Dairy products

* Onions and garlic

* Sweets or chocolates

Diagnosis of the complaint should be done in different ways to attain complete analysis for getting complete cure. The tests often required may be

* Endoscopy for the sinuses

* CT scan to rule out nasal obstruction, lung disorders, etc.

* Blood investigations to rule out diabetes, infection, allergies, metabolic disorders

* Urine investigations to rule out diabetes, ketone bodies and metabolic disorders

Treatment: For temporary relief, anyone can use

* Cleanser, paste, mouthwash, mouth freshener or deodorant, gargles, tongue cleaner or wiper, etc.

* Chewing gum which influences secretion of saliva

* Cloves, cardamom, camphor, nutmeg, green pudhina leaves or guava leaves or betel leaves for masking the foul odour

Sometimes even doctors do give the same advice, but mouthwashes and deodorants are generally cosmetic and do not have a long-lasting effect on bad breath. Antibacterial and antiseptic preparations act for some more time than maskers like deodorants or chewing gums. Antibiotic treatment also will work for the time being only.

Homeopathic approach to halitosis - Everyone can notice that use of mouth freshener works only for the time being. Removing the actual cause or disease can only help in the long run. Treatment will be successful only when we find and remove the actual cause and treat the condition i.e. treat infection, sinusitis, lung infection, post-nasal drip, chronic bronchitis, etc.

Regarding treatment of halitosis in Homeopathy, there are different types of odours which mimic fermented beer, brandy, cabbage, cheese, chicken dung, putrid, fish brine, garlic, sulphur, tobaccos, cadaver, earth, rotten eggs, sour taste, sole leather, garlic, metallic, musty, onions, etc., i.e., odour differs from person to person depending upon the bacteria. Likewise, prescription also differs in Homeopathy from person to person. So, each patient is treated separately i.e., individually.

Homeopathic medicines can act as mouth wash, can remove the disease completely, and can act neurologically and stimulate the body for quality normal secretions. Treatment should be given for the complaints like recurrent cold, sinusitis, dental problems, gingivitis, stomatitis, indigestion, etc. Evidence shows that the messenger for wellness - Homeopathy - has gained in importance in the tide of health fortunes and has made the world turn towards it with its fragrance of cure.

Homeopathic medicines commonly used in the case of offensive breath are - Asafoetida, Baptisia, Baryta mur, Benzoic acid, Bromium, Calc carb, carbolic acid, Carbo animalis, Carbo veg, Crot - hor, Graphites, Hepa sulf, Kali sulp, Merc sol, Nat sulp, Nit acid, Opium, Plantago, Psorinum, Pulsatilla, Rhus tox, Sepia, Silicea, Staphysagria, Sulphur, Tarentula, Tellurium, Thuja, Tuberculinum (http://abchomeopathy.com/r.php/tub),... etc.
