Chronic Bad Breath Treatment | Bad Breath Center of America

Bad Breath Center of America

Finally Fix Chronic Bad Breath at the Source

Advanced testing and targeted treatment for bad breath that keeps coming back.

If This Sounds Familiar

You think about your breath before you talk, keep space between you and others, and rely on gum, mints, or mouthwash to get through the day. It has started to affect your confidence in conversations, your comfort in close interactions, and your relationships with others.

The Cause Has Not Been Identified

Chronic bad breath is often not a hygiene issue. It is caused by bacteria that live deep in the tongue and throat, in areas that brushing, flossing, and mouthwash cannot reach. These bacteria produce sulfur gases that create persistent odor. Without identifying and measuring the exact source, the problem continues no matter how often you brush or what products you use.

Why Typical Solutions Fail

Mints, Mouthwash, and Brushing Are Not Enough

These measures only mask the problem. To eliminate bad breath, you have to identify the bacteria responsible for the smell and eliminate them

Source-Based Treatment

Temporary Management

How We Identify and Treat the Cause

At the Bad Breath Center of America, we use advanced testing to measure the gases causing your bad breath and identify the bacteria responsible. Then we eliminate them using specialized patented instruments only available in our office and targeted laser treatment that reaches areas other methods cannot.

Our 4-Visit Treatment Process

Treatment follows a structured process designed to identify the source and eliminate it completely.

Visit 1:

Comprehensive Diagnostic Exam

We use an advanced gas chromatograph to measure the gases that are responsible for causing bad breath and identify the bacteria producing them. This allows us to determine exactly what is causing the odor.

Visit 2-4:

Targeted Treatment

We eliminate the bacteria using specialized instruments and laser treatment that reach areas brushing, flossing, and mouthwash cannot. Each visit is focused and purposeful, with a clear goal of resolving the problem rather than managing it.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a General Dentist who has worked with both Dr Mark and Dr Tom McCawley for more than 10 years, I strongly recommend this practice for its high standards of professionalism and quality in patient care. Many of my patients leave McCawley's practice highly satisfied with their experience from the moment they walk in the door until the end of treatment. They are my first choice for implant procedures on my own family members.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely amazing office. I can’t express enough how wonderful they all are. I was recommended to Dr Mark McCawley from a local dentist whom they frequently work together on cases. Brittany in the office is fantastic. She is so kind and responsive and made the whole process much easier with her great communication and personality. Dr Mark and his entire staff who assisted were fabulous as well. I had an implant placed, gum grafting and the LANAP procedure all done at once. The procedure itself was a breeze, I was awake the whole time and it was a lot easier than I had anticipated. The healing part is more serious than I had expected with the stitches and food restrictions however the entire team is fabulous and I’m confident in how amazing this will heal. Highly recommend Dr Mark McCawley and his team!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the LANAP procedure 2 days ago. I was not looking forward to it, but today I can tell you it was so easy. I have no pain and so impressed with how gentle Dr. Mark is. It went smoothly, I was sleepy for most of the procedure and went home, relaxed a bit and caught up with some paperwork. I appreciate the expertise his assistant Adriana displayed, she was very communicative, gentle and a joy to have by my side in surgery. This office is the best!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't say enough great things about the McCawley Center. I had to have gum surgery and was terrified.  From beginning to end, the staff answered all questions and put me at ease. The procedure went well and the follow up appointments went smoothly. Extremely knowledgeable and professional staff. Extra special shout out to Tori, the dental hygienist! She really did a great job calming me down before my procedure and has done an excellent job with my follow up care. Again, the McCawley Center is an exceptional dental office!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend Dr. McCawley and his incredible team! I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Mark McCawley, Maria, Brittany, William, and the entire staff. I recently underwent LANAP treatment and received two dental implants. I just finished my 3-week follow-up appointment today, and everything is healing beautifully and going exactly as planned. From day one, they have been incredibly professional, kind, and attentive. If you need a periodontist, this is absolutely the team you want!

FAQ

Questions About Chronic Bad Breath Treatment

What makes your bad breath treatment different from other approaches?

Most treatments focus on masking odor temporarily. At the Bad Breath Center of America, we use advanced testing to identify the specific gases and bacteria responsible, then target them directly with specialized instruments and laser treatment.

What if I have tried everything and nothing has worked?

Many of our patients have already tried mouthwash, tongue scrapers, cleanings, probiotics and multiple dental visits before coming to our office. Persistent bad breath often continues when the actual source has never been properly identified and treated.

Why do patients travel to your office for treatment?

The Bad Breath Center of America uses specialized patented instruments and advanced testing methods that are not commonly available in traditional dental offices. Patients seek treatment here because of our focused approach to chronic bad breath.

Will I know what is causing my bad breath after the first visit?

The comprehensive diagnostic exam is designed to identify the source of the odor and determine the bacteria and gases involved. After testing, you will receive clear treatment recommendations based on your specific results.
