Frequently Asked Questions About Maintaining Fresh Breath

Q. Are there any harmful chemicals in the Breath Appeal solutions?
A. Breath Appeal Solutions are non-toxic if used as directed. Even if you accidentally swallow some of the diluted solutions, they will do no harm.

Q. Why do I need to clean my tongue?
A. Bad breath is caused by anaerobic bacteria that reside in the soft tissue surfaces of the mouth, primarily the tongue, gums, cheeks and lips. These surfaces trap and accumulate dead tissue, blood elements and food debris. Anaerobes decompose the protein in these materials, which putrefy to form molecules of hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan, two noxious, sulfurous gases that are the prime cause of offensive breath odor.

The decomposed matter also forms a paste-like layer of plaque on the tongue (sometimes called “morning tongue”). Mucus seals the plaque, creating an air-tight “blanket” that prevents oxygen from reaching the ridges and valleys of the tongue. This assures an ever available food supply for the anaerobic bacteria which can only thrive in an oxygen-free environment. As the anaerobes feed and multiply, they produce a corresponding increase in the sulfurous gas molecules that cause bad breath..

By scraping your tongue, you are reducing the food supply on which the anaerobes feed. This also permits the Breath Appeal solutions to penetrate into the ridges of the tongue and unleash a powerful oxidant which destroys the offensive sulfur molecules.

Q. Why is it important to floss my teeth?
A. By flossing, you are reducing the amount of putrefiable protein available for producing sulfurous gas molecules that cause bad breath.

Q. Why do some people have bad breath and others don’t?
A. Some people may have substantially more anaerobic bacteria in their mouth, more irregular tongue surfaces, or lower salivary flow, than others. Any or all of these factors can lead to the production of higher amounts of sulfurous gas molecules. All people are different. The unlucky ones have the factors that predispose them to breath malodor. But fortunately, the Breath Appeal Treatment is completely effective for eliminating this condition permanently.

Q. How long must I use the Breath Appeal Treatment?
A. You must continue treatment twice a day, every day, to ensure that your bad breath will not return.
