The source of diseases is the inflammatory process. Problems with the nasopharynx appear with sinusitis, tonsillitis, pharyngitis, sinusitis and angina. With difficult nasal breathing, a person breathes a mouth, which causes dryness of the mucous membrane. Drying is the third cause of an unpleasant smell.

Having woken up one day, a person realizes that his breathing is far more stale. Why does this happen? When people sleep saliva is produced poorly, and the oral cavity dries up. The same situation occurs during a long conversation. Sometimes dryness becomes chronic, then it is a disease called xerostomia. Saliva helps wash the harmful bacteria out of the body and mouth, and reducing its number leads to the multiplication of microbes that cause stink.

Diseases of internal organs can provoke malodorous odor from the oral cavity( gastritis, cirrhosis, constipation).Visit the appropriate doctor is better after consulting a dentist who excludes diseases of the teeth and gums.

Dental prostheses promote stale breathing. The reason for this is improper care of the prosthesis or its absence, as a result of which bacteria reproduce on its surface.
