Abstract: Halitosis is one of the most common reason for referral to dentists following dental caries and periodontal diseases.80％to 90％of pathological halitosis is caused by oral factors,known as intra-oral halitosis(IOH).The clinical treatment of IOH includes regular dental cleaning,daily health care and the use of antibacterial drugs.However,these methods can not eradicate IOH,and the poor efficacy and strong discomfort of patients lead to poor compliance of them and the ideal control effect can not be achieved.Laser treatment,usually without anesthesia and almost no pain,is suitable for the clinical treatment of a variety of oral diseases.This review briefly introduces the eti-ology,diagnosis and treatment of IOH and focuses on the efficacy of laser treatment of IOH in recent years,providing more new options for the treatment of oral bad breath in the future.
