When it comes to bad breath, most people believe that only adults or middle-aged and elderly people have bad breath. In daily life, the probability of adults having bad breath is indeed higher than that of infants and young children. However, this does not mean that infants and young children will not have bad breath problems. Due to various reasons, children may occasionally experience symptoms of bad breath. So, what should children eat if they frequently have bad breath?
If children have bad breath, they can eat some probiotics that help with digestion. Encourage the baby to drink more water and eat fresh green leafy vegetables and apples. To completely solve the problem of bad breath in children, it is necessary to prescribe the right medicine. Firstly, it is necessary to understand the cause of bad breath in babies. First, eliminate it from the diet and see if the food that babies have been eating recently is too greasy and difficult to digest, leading to indigestion caused by accumulated food. Because babies have indigestion, they will have bad breath problems. Therefore, adjust their diet first and then combine it with some probiotics.
While adjusting their diet, it is also important to pay attention to their baby's oral hygiene. Like adults, babies should brush their teeth every morning and evening, and rinse their mouths after meals. When babies were young, they didn't like to brush their teeth and would cry when brushing. Some parents just deal with it and brush their teeth carelessly or not, which can lead to poor oral hygiene. Over time, oral bacteria multiply rapidly, causing not only bad breath but also dental caries.
In addition to the two aspects mentioned above, if a baby has Helicobacter pylori, it can also cause bad breath. Therefore, if the baby has no dietary problems and brushes their teeth carefully in the morning and evening, and still has bad breath, parents should take the baby to the hospital for testing to see if there is Helicobacter pylori. If Helicobacter pylori is detected, it should be treated with medication in a timely manner, because Helicobacter pylori not only causes bad breath, but also many other stomach problems.
