Getting to the Root of Bad Breath
Flower Cones
Source: Everyday Health
If you're constantly popping mints or chewing gum to cover up bad breath, you're not
alone. One in four Americans has halitosis. Why? Most cases of halitosis are caused by
improper dental hygiene. If you don't brush and floss your teeth after every meal, bits
of food that get stuck in your teeth and gums and on your tongue will begin to decay
and emit foul odors.
An unclean mouth also means that bacteria can grow, potentially leading to gum
disease, which is also a cause of bad breath. In addition, certain foods and drink are
more likely to cause bad breath, including garlic, onions, cheese, orange juice, and
soda including diet varieties. After these foods or drinks are digested, their oils make
their way into your bloodstream and are then carried into your lungs. The odor is then
released through your breath.

 Medium-weight paper
 Decorative scissors
 Craft glue
 Hole punch
STEPS
1.
Other Causes of Bad Breath
Aside from what you eat and drink, bad breath can also be linked to:



A dry mouth. Saliva is your mouth's natural cleanser, so when your mouth
is dry, dead cells can build up, which is what causes morning breath. This is
an even bigger problem if you sleep with your mouth open. Smoking and
certain medications can also cause dry mouth. In more extreme cases, you
could have a problem with your salivary glands that leaves your mouth
unusually dry.
Chronic diseases. Sometimes underlying health conditions can cause bad
breath. Lung infections, cancers, kidney or liver failure, diabetes, and
gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), for example, are all associated
with halitosis.
Respiratory, mouth, throat, and nose conditions. These conditions are
also often associated with bad breath. For example, discharge from a sinus
infection is known to cause bad breath. If you have an upper respiratory
infection such as bronchitis, the sputum coughed up can also cause
halitosis.

Tobacco products, particularly smoking. Tobacco products can dry your
mouth and result in bad breath. People who use tobacco are also at
greater risk of developing gum disease, poor general oral health, and oral
cancers.

Malnutrition. Starvation or intense dieting can result in bad breath due to
ketoacidosis, which is a breakdown of chemicals that occurs during fasting.

Tonsils. Your tonsils are filled with nooks and crannies where bacteria and
other materials, including dead cells and mucous, can become trapped.
When this happens, the debris can become concentrated in white
formations that occur in the pockets. Tonsil stones are formed when this
trapped debris hardens, or calcifies. This can cause bad breath.
2.
To make flower cones, cut medium-weight paper into a 7inch square. Use decorative scissors to scallop edge and a
pencil to form tip.
Secure outer flap of cone with craft glue. Punch six holes,
1 inch apart, beginning at top front center; thread 20-inch
length of 1/2-inch-wide ribbon through holes. Tie bow at
front, and leave a 7-inch loop at the back.
Beating Bad Breath
To combat bad breath, try the following:

Avoid foods and beverages that you know cause bad breath; this may also
mean minimizing your intake of alcohol.

Brush for two to three minutes after every meal and floss your teeth at
least once a day.

Brush your tongue gently to remove dead cells, including the back of your
tongue, because that's where bacteria often collect.

Drink lots of water to keep your mouth moist and clean. And water really is
what's best here: Other beverages, particularly caffeinated beverages,
don't work as well as water for halitosis treatment and prevention.


Get a dental cleaning at least twice a year.

Suck xylitol to stimulate saliva production, which helps wash away food
particles and bacteria.
If you wear dentures, bridges, or removable braces, clean them thoroughly
at least once a day.

10 of the Best “Dad Jokes”
In honor of Father’s Day this month, we’ve decided to include a special selection of
“Dad Jokes” or jokes that only Dads have the audacity to tell. Enjoy!
-
D-Day occurred on June 6th, 1944
On D-Day some 156,000 American, British, and Canadian
forces landed on 5 beaches along a 50-mile stretch of heavily
fortified coast of France’s Normandy Region.
D-Day was part of the Battle of Normandy, which lasted from
June 1944 to August 1944
The Battle of Normandy’s codename was Operation Overlord
General Dwight D. Eisenhower was the appointed commander
of Operation Overlord
Eisenhower actually selected June 5th, 1944 for the date of the
invasion, but had to move it back a day due to bad weather.
U.S. forces faced heavy resistance at Omaha Beach, where
there were over 2,000 American casualties.
By the end of the day about 156,000 allied troops successfully
stormed Normandy’s beaches.
According to estimates over 4,000 allied troops lost their lives
in the D-Day invasion and thousands more were wounded or
missing.
The Normandy turned the tide against the Nazi’s. It is
considered the beginning of the end of World War II.
It prevented Hitler from sending troops from France to build
up his Eastern Front against advancing Soviets.

Did You Know?
The Normandy American Cemetery, overlooking Omaha Beach and the
English Channel, was established on June 8th, 1944, as the first U.S.
cemetery in Europe during World War II. It holds the graves of more
than 9,300 U.S. servicemen who died in the D-Day invasion or
subsequent missions.

Hope For The Warriors
Hope For The Warriors was founded by military families aboard Marine Corps Base Camp
Lejeune, NC in 2006 as they witnessed, firsthand, the effects war imparts on service members
and their families. Hope For The Warriors has remained grounded in family values as the
organization expands both the span of programs offered and the number of wounded, family
members, and families of the fallen assisted.
Sudoku Puzzle
The leadership of the organization remains in the dedicated hands of combat veterans and
military family members. Together, our board of directors, staff, and volunteers work tirelessly
to serve those who have sacrificed so much. The integrity of our organization is paramount and
therefore our representatives are as honorable and noble as our mission and the people we
serve.
We believe those touched by military
service can succeed at home by restoring
their sense of self, family, and hope.
Nationally, Hope For The Warriors provides
comprehensive support programs for
service members, veterans, and military
families that are focused on transition,
health and wellness, peer engagement,
and connections to community resources.

We want to wish all Dad’s a Happy Father’s Day this year!
There are quite a few anniversaries we are celebrating in June here at Forest View Dental! Dr. Madson is celebrating 7 years. Three of our
hygienists are also celebrating their anniversary with us. Vicki has been with us for 20 years, Sara for 13 years, and Michelle for 2 years. Alyssa,
an assistant, is celebrating her 3-year anniversary. Congratulations!
Dr. LaSelle was able to attend a continuing education seminar in Milwaukee on Removable Partial Dentures. Dr. Madson volunteered at TriCounty dental clinic and participated in a fundraiser in Green Bay to raise awareness and money for the Alzheimer’s Association. They were
able to raise $30,000, which was double their goal! Thank you to those Forest View patients who joined Dr. Madson in supporting this cause!
