Valentine’s Day is February 14th, but nothing will ruin the mood like a sour kiss. If you are lucky enough to have a Valentine’s Day date, you do not want to scare them off with bad breath. Mints and gum may mask the odor, but halitosis, as the condition is called, can only truly be resolved by treating the cause. If you are self-conscious about your breath, there is a good chance your teeth are to blame. It is not too late to get a scaling and root planing in Dillon, CO for fresh breath and save Valentine’s Day.

Halitosis Can Be Caused by Tooth Decay

It is estimated that more than 40 million Americans suffer from chronic halitosis, but too few of these people understand that it can be a symptom of serious dental problems. If you commonly experience foul breath, it may be because of tooth decay. The bacteria that accumulates in cavities can omit a noxious odor that tastes bad at best and repels your loved ones at worst. It can make Valentine’s Day a lot less romantic to worry whether you should keep your kisses to yourself because of your breath.

Get the Confidence to Be Romantic With Help From Great Dental Care

Maintaining great dental habits is the best way to keep your breath fresh, but if you have bad breath on a regular business, a dentist can help you resolve the problem. If it is due to decay, you can explore restorative options, but even if your teeth are in great shape, you should regularly get them professionally cleaned in order to prevent the development of problems. Scheduling a scaling and root planing in Dillon, CO for deeply cleaned teeth is the best way to get your smile ready for Valentine’s Day.

Mountain View Family Dental is the premier dental care center in Dillon, CO. The doctors here are passionate about your dental health, so if you need to have your teeth cleaned in time for Valentine’s Day, call today to set up an appointment.
