Do you get a stuffy nose and restricted breathing that is improved after dental hygiene?

Mouth bacteria degrade protein meals into nitrate which decreases oxygen availability (metheglobulinemia). This should improve after you clear the protein from the mouth. If you're not sure note whether a stuff nose clear after mouth cleaning.

I had severe problems with nasal congestion, which improved a lot after turbinate reduction surgery. However, I didn't notice that that my nasal congestion has anything to do with my dental hygiene. Maybe I should have brushed my teeth more LOL
