INTRODUCTION: Halitosis can be caused by oral disease or by respiratory tract
conditions such as sinusitis, tonsillitis, and bronchiectasis, but an estimated
40% of affected individuals have no underlying organic disease. METHODS AND
OUTCOMES: We conducted a systematic review and aimed to answer the following
clinical question: What are the effects of treatments in people with
physiological halitosis? We searched: Medline, Embase, The Cochrane Library, and
other important databases up to July 2013 (Clinical evidence reviews are updated
periodically; please check our website for the most up-to-date version of this
review). We included harms alerts from relevant organisations such as the US Food
and Drug Administration (FDA) and the UK Medicines and Healthcare products
Regulatory Agency (MHRA). RESULTS: We found 11 studies that met our inclusion
criteria. We performed a GRADE evaluation of the quality of evidence for
interventions. CONCLUSIONS: In this systematic review, we present information
relating to the effectiveness and safety of the following interventions:
artificial saliva; cleaning, brushing, or scraping the tongue; regular use of
mouthwash; sugar-free chewing gums; and zinc toothpastes.
