Cause

Cause

The long-term oral cavity is unsanitary, and the food residue in the mouth is accumulated for a long time. Under the action of bacteria, the fermentation is decomposed and decomposed, and sulphur-hydrogen-based and amine-like substances are produced. There is a rotten stench in the mouth and saliva.

There are also several pathological conditions:

1, oral disease: rotted teeth in the decay, periodontal disease makes the gums often inflamed state, abscess bleeding, ulceration and pus, is also prone to a stinky smell.
