Oral malodor Diagnosis:
The first thing we will take the medical history , and we will see the clinical and laboratory Examination
Medical History: The proper diagnostic approach to a malodor patient starts with a thorough questioning about the medical history. Asking about all the relevant pathologies for breath malodor just discussed is not time-consuming; it may save time and expenses to achieve a proper differential diagnosis.
The clinician should ask about the frequency (e.g., every month), the time of appearance during the day (e.g., after meals can indicate a stomach hernia), the time when the problem first appeared, whether others (nonconfidants) have identified the problem (to exclude imaginary …show more content…
Smelling a saliva spit in a smell cup or spoon
Licking the wrist and allowing it to dry.
Oropharyngeal Examination.
The oropharyngeal examination includes inspection of deep carious lesions, interdental food impaction, wounds, bleeding of the gums, periodontal pockets, tongue coating, dry mouth, and the tonsils and pharynx (for tonsillitis and pharyngitis).
Organoleptic Measurement:
Organoleptic measurement can be carried out simply by sniffing the patient’s breath and scoring the level of oral malodour. By inserting a translucent tube (2.5 cm diameter, 10 cm length) into the patient’s mouth and having the person exhale slowly, the breath, undiluted by room air, can be evaluated and assigned an organoleptic score
We have the organoleptic rating : is a trained judge sniffs the expired air and assess the intensity . normal fron 0 to 5
0=no ordor
1=barely noticeable odor
2=slightly but clearly noticeable odor.
3=moderate
