Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

If you have smelly tonsils then go for a tonsillectomy and not the laser treatment. My ENT in the UK does not believe in laser treatment as it does not always solve the problem. He always recommends just cutting the whole thing out rather than trying to burn the tonsil flesh surface flat. Recover an...

OK looks like I am still suffering from halitosis. I find that my BB start and is at its worse after eating or drinking anything. Some foods are particularly bad but ultimately all foods will start the the smell becoming more stronger. Regarding drinks, hot drinks (e.g coffee) and alcohol are the wo...

Like I said, I didnt take any medicines. I dont take any medicines in general unless things are really bad. I do not class a cold or the flu as a bad condition and would never usually take anything for them. The only thing I do use is a vicks minty inhaler which isnt really a medicine. I find this h...

No, I did not take any antibiotics or any other medication. The only thing I did use is the Vicks Nasal Inhaler stick thing to help stop the nose constantly running.

When I have a cold, due to my blocked nose I am unable to smell my bad breath. For some reason, when I have a cold I also cannot feel the sticky feeling in my mouth ...

I have the Tung brush and have used Tung branded gel with no success in terms of a complete cure.

Anyone know possible causes of overgrowth of bacteria on the tongue?

So after, having my tonsils out, removing an impacted wisdom tooth and having an extensive deep clean at the dentist, I am now ready to consider going to a specialist as my bad breath is still there. What I want to know is what these specialist can do that dentists and doctors are reluctant to do. W...

This is my first post having suffering from chronic bad breath for 4 years. At first I didnt know what was causing my bad breath but I slowly started to notice things and eliminate things. The first key contributor I discovered were tonsil stones. Following removal of my tonsils 1 year ago I found m...
