When someone says to you, ‘Got a mint?’, it can mean one of two things. One: perhaps they just fancy a mint, or two (and far more likely): they think you need one yourself because of your stinky breath. We all suffer a bit of bad breath – or halitosis – from time to time. The Bad Breath Institute […]

Our patients are happily reporting that the Airigation® treatment is not only effective after eating spicy and garlic food but also very effective as a preventive treatment before consuming such food.  Therefore it has proven very effective to get an Airigation® treatment before a hot and spicy dinner/date as the treatment effectively battles embarrassingly strong odor containing food.
