Bad Breath Cure - Sharing Is Caring

While a cure for bad breath is desirable there are obstacles on the road to recovery one of which may surprise you greatly.

When attempting to find a bad breath cure ignorance about the causes of the condition and about potential treatments can be obstacles that are difficult to overcome. However, there is an obstacle that completely prevents a cure but is often ignored.

The obstacle in question concerns the sufferer being unaware that the condition actually exists. Okay, it is fairly obvious that there needs to be an awareness of the condition in the first place if only because if there is no awareness there is no condition. There's a problem when the person afflicted with the condition is unaware he/she has it, thereby the suffering rest firmly with other people!

Although comical it has unfortunate effects if the condition is bad. I can recall a recent occasion when myself and other vicarious sufferers endured unpleasant ramifications. At a recent party I was introduce to the boyfriend of an old acquaintance. Whenever I recount this incident I am accused of exaggeration but, regrettably I do not. His halitosis was extreme, comfortably the worst I have encountered but the extraordinary thing was he seemed not to be aware of the fact. Despite hardly knowing him, he was fine with breathing all over you. Furthermore he was happy to kiss his girlfriend and generally interact as if there was nothing up.

His halitosis was so foul it seemed to be alive. Although not actually tangible the stench was so disgusting it felt as though you could touch it! It seemed that everyone put up with it but for different reasons. While some complained vociferously others were unwilling to upset the girlfriend. It was almost a straight split between those that knew him better, they simply put up and shut up, while those who had just met him moaned. The point is that the offender was unaware of the condition despite those around him being very aware of it. At more formal events this would be terrible. For example, it would be a disaster of sufficient proportions to cause a job applicant to fail at interview, at least potnetially. Clearly an undesirable impression would be created in more formal social settings.

My point is that before any bad breath cure can be considered the person with the condition needs to be made aware of the severity of it. While a condition may not reach the full horror of the person in this story it is, nevertheless important for significant others to inform the sufferer so something can be done!
