Halitosis Treatment in Houston, TX

What Causes Chronic Bad Breath?

Halitosis, or persistent bad breath, can stem from several dental and systemic factors. Common culprits include:

• Bacteria Accumulation – Especially on the tongue, gums, and between teeth
• Untreated Gum Disease – A major contributor to foul odors and infection
• Dry Mouth – Often caused by medications or insufficient saliva
• Tooth Decay or Infections – Trapped bacteria in cavities or under restorations
• Medical Conditions – Such as sinus infections, acid reflux, or diabetes

At our Houston office, we don’t guess—we diagnose. Our team uses targeted tools and thorough evaluations to pinpoint the true cause of halitosis and develop a plan that provides lasting relief.
