Bad Breath Bug Discovered

"Biologists say they've identified the bacteria responsible for most cases of bad breath - Solobacterium moorei, which uses the tongue as a base on which to brew its malodorous compounds.

Two studies helped researchers confirm the findings, Reuters reports. One by the Buffalo School of Dental Medicine probed 21 people with chronic bad breath and 36 without and found S. moorei "in every patient that had halitosis".

A previous study of eight subjects with halitosis and five without showed S. moorei was "always found in patients with halitosis and never in patients who did not have this problem".

The biologists presented their findings to Saturday's annual meeting of the American Association for Dental Research in Dallas."

Here is probably another explanation of why KForceK12 Probiotic Treatment is so successful. KForceK12 is a bacteria that lives on the tongue surface and is able to defend its territory against invading bad breath bacteria such as S.moorei.

The other interesting point shown in the studies is that bad breath bacteria live in tongue coatings. KForceK12 is designed to remove coatings twice a day. So KForceK12 not only remove coatings bacteria feed on, but also fight against the actual bad breath bacteria. This is exciting news, more to follow!!

New Website for Australian Breath Clinic

We are just completing a trial of our new product discovery. Called the KFORCE BALANCE SYSTEM, it is available at the moment only from our clinic website or the Sydney clinic in Edgecliff. As we will now have more patients going to the Clinic website, it has been totally rewritten, to explain how bad breath can be effectively treated, and show you the new products.

Today Tonight visits Australian Breath Clinic

The current affairs show "Today Tonight" visited Australian Breath Clinic last week to see exactly how our Oral Chromatography machine works. Interviewer Paul Makin was amazed at the technology, as well as how the clinic operated.

Melbourne Clinic will now also be able to do Breath Testing with the Oral Chroma. They will take delivery of their machine later this month.

So if you want a breath reading to see if you have a problem, or you want to book a Breath Consultation, or you are just interested in our KForce Breath Guard Kit to treat Halitosis, please call Sharon at our Clinic on the toll free number 1300-653-335.

As always, I am happy to hear from you about your individual problem with breath, and I will do my best to answer any of your questions.

Australia Breath Clinic Introduction

Welcome to the "Australian Breath Clinic" Blogsite. The aim of the site will be to allow interaction and feedback to all questions whether dental or bad breath. So you can post your questions either directly on this blogsite or to our email dentist@breezecare.com

We have just received an Oral Chroma Gas Chromagraph from Japan. We are the only private clinic in Australia to own one of these machines, and there are less then 500 worldwide. Oral Chroma is able to give you a scientific readout of the three main gases of bad breath (hydrogen sulphide, methyl mercaptan, and dimethyl sulphide) and make suggestions as to the likely site of the bacteria making these Volatile Sulphur Compounds. Testing is non invasive and takes just 8minutes. If you would like a Free Breath Analysis with the Oral Chroma please call us on 1300-653-335 (toll free) to organise a time to stop by and have a reading. This machine is only available at our Australian Breath Clinic in Edgecliff Sydney, and not with any of our affiliates.

I look forward to answering any questions you may have.

Dr Geoffrey Speiser (BDS Syd.Uni)
