Have you ever been speaking to someone and noticed that your breath is smelly? It can be very embarrassing, and it may be a sign of a serious problem. Most of us are quite good at brushing and flossing twice a day. But many of us are still concerned about the smell of the breath later in the day.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>

It certainly shouldn\u2019t be ignored, though. Gingivitis is quite common for teenagers to suffer, and it is incredibly embarrassing for them. Left untreated, gum disease can cause far more serious problems.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
