A. If your kids have persistent bad breath despite brushing twice a day, there could be several reasons for it. Common causes include poor oral hygiene, where food particles or plaque may still be trapped between teeth or on the tongue. However, if they are brushing properly, other factors might be at play. Dry mouth, where the mouth doesn’t produce enough saliva, can also contribute to bad breath, as saliva helps wash away food particles and bacteria. Additionally, certain foods like garlic, onions, or dairy can cause temporary bad breath. Medical issues, such as a sinus infection, allergies, or digestive problems like acid reflux, could also lead to persistent bad breath. If the issue continues, it would be a good idea to visit a pediatric dentist or a doctor to rule out any underlying health conditions. Regular visits to the dentist for check-ups and cleanings can help maintain good oral health and address any potential issues.
