Terrible Halitosis that wont go away with tongue scraping?
May 30, 2010 - 12:49 pm
I’ve recently become plagued with terrible bad breath. I have a simple plastic tongue scraper, and it doesn’t seem to be orking well. My breath is really rank, and it’s very annoying. What else can I try, other than going to a dentist?
Bad breath can often originate from your gums rather than your tongue alone. Many times it doesn’t even originate from your mouth at all, it’s a pH issue. If mouthwash and dental materials aren’t working, OTC pills exist for it. If none of that works, a dentist is your best bet.

Hello, There are "4" basic causes of bad breath, (1) tooth decay (2) gum tissue infection (3) Sinus infection and (4) digestive issues…..If you have had a recent dental checkup and no tooth decay or gum disease was found your next visit should be with an ENT Dr. (Ear,Nose & Throat)..if that doesn’t provide an answer you next visit should be with an Internist, MD Dr. to see if you have digestive tract problems. Good luck and I wish you well.
