Your little one may be adorable with all their cute behavior. However, all of that can be disrupted by the problem of bad breath. Not only adults, your little one can also experience bad breath problems due to several things. In order to prevent it, first identify some of the causes, come on!

Oral hygiene is badly maintained

When your little one's teeth begin to grow, you can introduce them to maintaining their dental and oral hygiene. This can be learned from your habit of cleaning your teeth and mouth twice a day in the morning and evening. In some cases, bad breath can be caused by poor oral hygiene. Tooth decay and cavities, plaque buildup, or other dental and oral problems can be the main cause of bad breath. You should also check your lirrle one's tongue to keep it clean because this can be a place for bacteria to accumulate.

Leftover food between the teeth

One of the other causes of bad breath is due to food residue that accumulates between the teeth or in cavities that are difficult to reach. Small pieces of food can stick between the teeth and rot and cause bad breath.

Disease

Bad breath can be a sign of a disease experienced by your little one, such as sinus or throat infections. In addition, problems related to digestion, such as acid reflux or vomiting can also cause bad breath. If it's related to this problem, you should check with a doctor to find out the right treatment, Moms!

Food

Eating foods that smell bad, like onions, can cause bad breath in your little one too, Moms. In addition, foods with high sugar content can also trigger bacteria to breed which is the cause of odor.

Dry mouth

Starting from falling asleep with your mouth open to a blockage in the nose can be the cause of dry mouth which is the beginning of bad breath. Dry mouth is caused by a lack of saliva which is useful for eliminating odor-causing bacteria. For that, make sure your little one doesn't have breathing problems and always drinks enough to keep his mouth from drying out.
