Our mouth is like a window to overall health bad breath, gum issues, or dryness often signal deeper problems. Paying attention to these “whispers” can help catch issues early and keep both oral and general health in check.
It’s really eye-opening to realize that something as simple as the way we breathe can affect our mouth so deeply.
Dry mouth from mouth breathing doesn’t just cause bad breath it subtly signals how our body’s balance impacts oral health. Makes me think twice about the small habits we often overlook!
