Most of us will suffer from bad breath at least once in our lifetime. In many cases, a quick brush of the teeth or a mint can take care of much of the problem, but others suffer from bad breath on a regular basis. Though in terms of general health, the problem may seem small, it can be socially difficult.
If you suffer from chronic bad breath, help may be on the way. Last week, 200 scientists descended upon Chicago for the International Conference on Breath Odor Research, for one reason and one reason alone: to conquer bad breath once and for all. Though they know that bad breath is caused by bacteria, and that most breath problems originate on the tongue, they want to further research on the causes and treatments of halitosis.
In the mean time, if bad breath is stopping you from getting close to someone you love or you find them avoiding you, here's some general advice on the cause and treatments of the condition.
