Bad Breath Causes, Cure & Treatment
80% of sulfer producing bacteria reside on your tongue, especially way in the back. Brush it every day two time a day. If you gag easily bite your tongue gently and brush the front part. Be adventurous and do the back part in short bursts.
Use liseterine
Brush three times a day.
Good luck
It could be tooth decay. Have you had your teeth checked by a dentist recently?
frequent flossing is very helpful. not eating garlic helps, sadly, as garlic rocks (this is the technical term), and is good for you. brushing the tongue and soft tissues of the mouth is necessary. a sinus infection may cause halitosis, or it could be the sign of something serious. chewing parsley or cloves helps, but you might want to see a dentist or doctor.
either tooth decay or you need to clean your colon. seriously! a clean gut!
dentists offer a prescription mouthwash for halitosis and also recommend a tongue scraper…also make sure you have your dental check up as needed…
Use hydrogen peroxide as a mouthwash. (use one part hydrogen peroxide (3%), and one part salty water)
Make sure you floss after you brush. Also, invest in a tongue scraper, they really do work! If that doesn’t work, you probably have a cavity or some other dental problem-they can cause bad breath…give your dentist a call. Good luck!
You can use a pre brushing rinse, like Act, then brush and rinse with Listerine which kills bacteria in the mouth and freshens breath. Also talk to your dentist about a product that comes in a kit containing a toothpaste, tongue scraper, and rinse. The problem could aslo be a result of digestive problems like acid reflux.
It maybe tooth decay, do you brush your tongue as well? There lots of grove and "hair" on your tongue, plaque love to have a party there, causing halitosis too. Do you spend enough time on brushing? at least takes 2-3 mins of brushing. Flossing also the important part, people should floss first and brush.
The other thing is diet also related to Halitosis. Some people taking medication or wine or smoke, causing dry mouth, which decrease the salivary flow. Some people have lactose-intolerant causing malabsorption.. anyway Good Oral Hygiene and Good Diet are the main keys to maintain a fresh breathe, hope that help
Mouth is a common opening.Gases emanating from the intestine or the stomach because of indigestion /constipation/acidity has to pass through the mouth.
Gases emanating from the lungs in diabetic patients (called as acetone breath)can cause the problem
Smell from the infection from throat infections take this route
Smell fro the sinus discharge(infected) can be foul smelling from the mouth
Or coming from accumulated food from the mouth or from odor causing bacteria or an infected tooth.
Paste gives you only temporary freshness.So try for a permanent solution.
So a comprehensive diagnosis of the root cause by the dentist is essential in this regard so that you just don’t get temporary relief but a permanent solution.
All the best

visit ur dentist for check-up.she/he will prescribe sumthing 4 ur halitosis..u need to brush your teeth atleast thrice a day and use a prescribed mouthwash…
maybe use a toothpaste that has some sort of breath freshner it or use mouthwash, i know this might sound weird but do u brush your tongue,that is suppose to help with the breath as well, there are also breath sprays,drops, and other things you can get at the store that will help too.
Always use a product like Listerine.
It may not be comming from your mouth.
If you are brushing properly,
flossing, using a disinfecting mouthwash such as listerine (some drs suggest a salt water rinse) and getting regular dental cleanings, the problem is likely in your stomach (not your mouth)
Here is a link that may help you

Have you had a check-up from your dentist? Do you have recurrent sinus infections, (sinusitus)? Do you have any infected teeth &/or gums or impacted wisdom teeth (3rd molars)? If none of the above apply do these: Brush after every meal, don’t eat any sugary snacks unless you can brush afterwards, floss once a day EVERY day, scrape your tongue every time you brush with a teaspoon, rinse with a NON-alcohol rinse that is formulated to neutralize the sulfur and organic compounds found naturally in the mouth every time you brush. Hope this helps.
brush your tongue as well…there is a device called a tongue scraper.
A good mouth wash and tongue brushing !! ?:)x
try also brushing your tongue as well it may help as the tongue has most of the germs that cause bad breath
use a scrapper
I had a similar experience years ago. I finally had to go to an orthodontist and have a ‘root scaling’ done. It helped tremendously. Keeping your tongue clean, also, helps.
Maybe this will help
"Brush your teeth with baking soda."
Taken from http://www.grannymed.com/meds/bad-breath.aspx
most likely you have periodontitis(gum disease), however there are other issues, some involving your gastrointestinal tract. First I would see a dentist and if no gum problems I would get with your regular doctor
after you brush you teeth make sure you brush your tongue and gums.
Brushing your tongue helps.
As soon as possible after eating, brush and floss your teeth and brush your tongue.
If you still get bad breath after these actions, and you know that you have no cavities that could be contributing, the problem may be arising in your stomach – in that case you see your family doctor.
