The Bad Breath Blog

Hey there,

Do you want to know how my TheraBreath system works? Maybe, you want to know the story behind why I created it and have worked continuously to make it even better? Or, possibly you are just not that convinced yet and need some free samples to try? Well, I will be doing that and more (including free breath testing) this coming week in Calgary and Edmonton.

Don’t be shy — stop by one or all of the locations below and walk away with a better understanding of the causes of bad breath and how TheraBreath can help get rid of it (did I mention free samples, too?). There is no need to RSVP – just come on by, say hi and leave with some free goodies!

I look forward to seeing you there,

Harold Katz, DDS

When you think of an addiction, you’re probably thinking of a life-ruining substance, but research shows that sugar addiction may cause the body to respond in the same ways it would when introduced a habit-forming drug. Maybe that’s why you can’t end a meal without a sweet treat or you routinely toss five sugar packets in your coffee each morning. Whatever your bad sugar habit may be, it can be a leading cause of bad breath.

Sugar and your oral health
Sugar is the mouth’s worst enemy. It acts as food for the anaerobic bacteria that live in the mouth and produce foul odors. Sugars are a form of fermentable carbohydrate, which are introduced to the digestion process in the oral cavity. This process creates acid and a lower pH in the mouth and works against the teeth’s enamel. What this means is that your sugar addiction may be causing halitosis and tooth decay. These issues will be more severe if you do not keep up brushing, flossing and rinsing.

Steps to minimizing your addiction to sugar
Sugar is one of the top bad breath foods, and it may be in a lot more things than you think. Instead of putting yourself in a situation where you have to give up all of your sugar habits, take it one step at a time. Following any sugary treat, make sure to drink water to help wash down any remnants left in the mouth that will cause halitosis or tooth decay.

Coffee
Whether you load your morning cup of Joe up with several packets of sugar or you regularly visit the local cafe to pick up a vanilla latte, this sugar intake can be deceiving. Since coffee is naturally bitter, you may not consider this a major part of your problem – but it is. Slowly train your palate to enjoy less sugar or densely sweetened creamer. After some time, you’ll actually start to enjoy the natural taste of coffee. If you still need a little something to perk up your coffee, try it with unsweetened vanilla almond milk. The vanilla taste may be enough to satisfy your craving.

Snack swap
Pay attention to the nutritional value of the snacks you typically consume. You may find that the yogurt you’re eating is advertised as a healthy snack, but it actually has loads of sugar – this may be why you’re so dependent on it. Take some time to look at the sugar content in other similar products and swap them out for something healthier. Better yet, munch on strawberries, an apple or grapes – these naturally sweet snacks are great for your overall and oral health.

The same goes with soda. Swap out your afternoon can of cola for an ice tea sweetened with honey or agave nectar.

While carrying a little bundle of joy can be a blissful time, it can also be a time filled with strange cravings, swollen ankles and pregnancy gingivitis. While we can’t rush out at midnight to get that sardine and fudge sundae she might be craving, we can help with the pregnancy gingivitis.

Did you know that as we age, we tend to take more medications, which can lead to dry mouth, which leads to bad breath?

Hi there,

Did you know that Mother’s day is less than a week away? You already knew that, right? That means gift-giving and kissing (and thanking) those mothers in your life that you love for being their wonderful, amazing selves.

If you are going to be passing out the smooches, make sure you have fresh breath as giving kisses with bad breath can make mom a little grossed out. No one wants to kiss (or be kissed by) someone with halitosis.

How do you get fresh breath? You use TheraBreath. As you know, TheraBreath is America’s #1 selling premium oral care brand and we have the perfect oral care products for both you and your mom.

Not sure what to get? May we suggest a TheraBreath Basic Kit? It’s the perfect introduction to TheraBreath and will keep your and your mother’s breath fresh – guaranteed!

Or what about a TheraBreath Whitening Kit that will effectively and affordably whiten any smile? Are your pearlies already white? How about getting yourself (or Mom) enough TheraBreath to have guaranteed fresh breath for months with one of our Money Saving Bonus Paks?

Visit TheraBreath.com today to start saving now.
