Hello Amal ,

Thanks for consulting Healthcaremagic .
This is Dr. Priyanka tiwari answering your query .

I have read your query and understand your concern . As fas as bad breath is concerned this is due to deposition of food debris in form of plaque and calculus in subgingival aeas of gums.
For bad breath i will suggest you to consult dentist for ORAL PROPHYLAXIS (scaling ) for cleaning plaque and calculus and i will suggest you few measures to follow :
- Use mouthwash like chlorhexidine regularly .
- Do warm saline rinses once daily .
- Brush your teeth twice daily .
- Eat green leafy vegetables in your diet .

Hope this will help you .
If you have further query i will be happy to help.

Brief Answer:
You can go for scaling yearly and to follow up every 6 months.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome again.

I have read your query. There is no need to go for scaling so frequently. I would suggest going for scaling yearly and visit your dentist every 6 months for follow up (oral examination)

Hope this will help you.
If you have a further query I will be happy to help.
