Smoking Causes Bad Breath
Smoking not only puts your health and life at risk but it also causes you to have bad breath. People who smoke have really bad breath that has often been compared to the smell of ashtrays!
Bad breath has been known to cause all sorts of personal problems. For example, it has been cited as one reason for relationships becoming strained resulting in breakups.
So why does smoking cause bad breath? Nicotine, an active ingredient in all cigarettes builds up in your teeth, tongue and gums and can have a drying effect to your mouth. Decreased moisture in your mouth limits the washing effect of saliva on oral bacteria and their waste products, causing bad breath.

Smoking also stains your teeth causing it to blacken and look ugly. Eventually, the damages in your teeth, tongue and gums lead to early teeth loss and you can develop oral cancer too.
If you are a smoker and have bad breath, then you need to make the effort to clean your teeth, tongue and gums. Mouthwash helps to mask the cigarette smell and gives you clean fresh breath. Also, you should always brush and floss your teeth and clean your tongue and gums. Make sure that you have scraped off the mucus in your tongue, where the odour-causing bacteria thrive and breed.
Make it a point to drink plenty of water and don’t leave your mouth dry. A dry mouth is the favourite hub of odour-causing bacteria. So drink lots of water to keep your mouth moist, thus reducing the chance of bacteria to grow.
