What causes bad breath?
 

Smelly sulphur compounds. Everyone has smelled these compounds before—cracking a hard-boiled egg or walking behind a running car are two different situations in which we smell them in everyday life. But of course, nobody wants other people to smell them coming out of our mouths. These same gaseous compounds help damaging bacteria penetrate the gum tissues and eventually attack the bone that surrounds the tooth. During this process, inflamed and bleeding gums are created. Naturally, if you get rid of the source of bad breath, your mouth looks and feels a lot healthier.
