Methods A total of 266 ordinary people were randomly chosen to participate in this survey. The survey was conducted using the questionnaire designed by the authors and the results were analyzed. Results The prevalence of self-reported halitosis was 52. 8%. Nearly 90% of the informants had ever suffered from this embarrassment. 50% of the informants thought that halitosis was caused by excessive internal heat（traditional Chinese medicine theory） and gastro-intestinal disease. Only 31.5% people knew that oral diseases and conditions contributed to halitosis. One half of the subjects investigated used mouthwashes or toothpaste to control oral malodor. Only 12.0% and 3.1% of the informants brushed tongue and used dental floss every week. Conclusion A large number of people in population is still unaware of halitosis. Inadequate oral hygiene information is one of the factors.
