Baby Dental – Bad Breath
Question: Why does my baby have bad breath?
Like with adults babies can have bad breath for may reasons a few are listed below:
* Allergy or cold: Extra mucus allows bacteria to grow, causing baby bad breath.
* Sinus infection: This occurs when fluid builds up in the nasal passages and drips down the back of the throat.
* Lack of Dental Care: Even if your baby only has few teeth, poor oral care can lead to tooth decay.
* Food: Some foods will cause bad breath
If you rule out these factors talk to your dentist and if need be also speek with your child pediatrician
