Your Breath: More Than Just a Way to Annoy People — What It Might Be Telling You About Your Health!

Snoring

If you’re waking up with a dry mouth, it might be because you’re snoring or sleeping with your mouth wide open—basically turning your mouth into a VIP lounge for bacteria, especially those pesky ones that cause "morning breath." If you tend to snore, chances are it’s because you’re sleeping on your back. Try rolling over to your side for a quieter, fresher morning. But here’s the kicker: snoring could also be a sign of sleep apnea. If you’re a regular snorer, it might be time to chat with your doctor to avoid the dental and health hiccups that come with it. Oh, and don’t forget about the leftover food partying between your teeth! A quick brush and floss before bed can kick those bacteria to the curb.
