The Difference of the Realization over the Halitosis between the People who Majored in Dental Hygiene and the Others

The halitosis could be caused by several reasons; among the reasons, the bad oral surroundings, the oral disease and hyposalivation are the causes of the oral part. The halitosis is divided into genuine halitosis, pseudo halitosis and halitophobia. The genuine halitosis could be measured by object inspection and incurred by physiological and pathological reasons. The pseudo halitosis does not have the objective symptoms, it does not realized by other people but the person itself feels the smell. The halitophobia patients believe that they have the disgusting smell even after the treatment for genuine halitosis or pseudo halitosis. The study over the halitosis has been processed for a long time, but there has been no examination about the difference over the halitosis between the people who majored in dental hygiene and the others, so this study was started to make additional data about the halitosis.
