Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

I suffer from type 1 BB which seems to come and go from day to day.... I've had reactions from people and Ive also had it confirmed by Oral Chromo which showed that I had a reading of 80PBB of the Hydrogen Sulfide gas, all other gasses were zero. This particlular gas is related to the tongue. I can ...

I think it is in some people's heads hence why they have a name for it...

It worked for me whilst I was taking it. Oral Chromo machine confirmed it. I guess it depends what type of BB you have. It probably wouldnt touch anyone's BB if it was eminating from the sinuses or tonsil stones. My BB originated from the back of the tongue and still does if I don't keep on top of i...

Good for you! The good thing is that you've managed to pin point where the odour is coming from. Good luck.

I have been to this Clinic and used the Oral Chromo machine. They measure the 3 VSC's and the readings come back in graph format as shown on their website. The first time I went I recorded a 'cognitive threshold' of 95 on the first gas (the rotten egg one), I was actually within the threshold which ...

Not sure if my tongue has an odour - the Gas Chromo machine had my Hydrogen sulfide at about 40 parts per billion but that could have been eminating from my gums / teeth / throat / tongue etc. He did say that this particluar gas was more attributed to poor oral health.... My BB is defo intermitent -...

No bleeding gums and no smell on the floss.... I'm trying the alkaline diet at the moment as I do eat a lot of crap (Rice, pasta, meat, spicey sauces) etc... So it was watermelon for breakfast - has anyone tried this before and stuck to it? I'm wondering if we only ate vegetables and fruit if that w...

I can't really try the toffee test as I can never smell my own breath and I can't ask the missus..... I'm going to book in to see an ENT about sinus's / tonsil stones etc... I do have what look like holes in my tonsils and I've always thought, what stops the food from getting in there - I used to ge...

Hi Apologies for the late reply - it's been a long weekend here in Oz and i only access this site through work. The orthodontist asked me not to eat anything or drink anything for 4 hrs prior. The meeting was at 4pm so I still did my normal routine that morning. What I thought was great news when my...

Anyone use the Oral Chroma machine?

Hi, Has anyone tried the Oral Chromotogrpahy machine (like the halimeter)? I have. 3 weeks ago I visited an orthodontist on the sunshine coast (Australia). I did the test for the 3 VSC's. It came back with 86 PPB of Hydrogen sulfide and 4PPB of Dimethyl sulfide - the 86 was within the congnitive thr...
