How treatment works

  1. 1

    Cause assessment

    We examine your gums, teeth, tongue coating and saliva to identify the source - over 80% of bad breath starts in the mouth.

  2. 2

    Professional cleaning

    Scaling and polishing removes the plaque, tartar and bacteria at the gumline that brushing can't reach.

  3. 3

    Treat the source

    We treat any gum disease, decay or failing old fillings driving the odour, and address dry mouth where present.

  4. 4

    Home routine & review

    You get a simple, personalised routine - tongue cleaning, technique and diet - plus a review to confirm it's resolved.

The Braces & Faces difference

  • We treat the cause, not just the symptom
  • Painless ultrasonic cleaning and gum care in-house
  • Honest assessment - including non-dental causes to rule out
  • Discreet, judgement-free care

Bad Breath Treatment FAQs

Frequently asked questions about bad breath treatment

Everything patients typically want to know before starting treatment.

Most bad breath comes from the mouth - gum disease, a coated tongue, cavities, food trapping and dry mouth. Less often it's linked to sinus, stomach or systemic issues, which we'll help you identify and refer if needed.

Mouthwash only masks the smell for a short while. If the cause is gum disease or tartar build-up, the odour returns within hours. Treating the underlying cause is the only lasting fix.

In most cases, yes - once the dental cause is treated and a good home routine is in place, the bad breath resolves. Ongoing 6-monthly cleanings keep it away.

It depends on the cause. A professional cleaning is typically ₹1,000–₹2,500; if gum treatment or fillings are needed, we provide a written quote after your assessment.
