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.

Measure the Gases

We use advanced testing to measure the volatile sulfur compounds responsible for odor

Identify the Bacteria

Testing helps identify the bacteria contributing to chronic bad breath

Targeted Bacterial Reduction

We eliminate the bacteria using specialized instruments and laser treatment that reach areas brushing, flossing, and mouthwash 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.

I can't say enough great things about my experience with Dr. Mark McCawley and his professional and personable staff! This was my first visit with a Periodontist and I was obviously a little nervous about what this might entail. It didn't take long at all for me to realize I made the right decision trusting my mouth and gums to The McCawley Center. They have been most supportive and reassuring throughout the procedure and my follow-up visits. Thank you for always treating me like I was your only patient.

I have been going to Dr Mccawley for the past 5 years. They are the best. All the procedures I've had there have been painless and turned out great. I had an all on 4 done at this office and it was done so professionally with hardly no pain. The staff are friendly and helpful. I highly recommended them to anyone. I drive two hours to continue my treatments here once I moved. Its hard to find good medical practices like this one. They make you feel so comfortable. I just had gum graft surgery and it went so smooth. They are truly wonderful.

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.

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.

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.

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.
