Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

Why is it that when we brush the tongue, the odor leaves for minutes and then returns.... I strongly believe it's because we have covered our tongues with mint and the mint covers up the smell of the foul gases perfectly whereas when we chew gum, the gum isn't having direct contact with the whole su...

Halitosisux...... you're not getting me.... You just agreed that there is something on the tongue which can't be taken out by brushing- you call it keratin, I believe it biofilm because biofilm also contains salts like keratin...... anyway, what I'm trying to drive home is that it's possible that th...

Meowkitty...... did you try what jimi said?? Baking soda+peroxide on the tongue... He said the tongue coating would dissapear.

Also, the white stuff on the tongue isn't just dead skin.... It is biofilm consisting of bacteria, mucus, dead skin cells and many other things........ and the reason why it can't be taken out is that it has HARDENED!!!!! And ordinary brushing can do NOTHING!!!! But what I'm really questioning is th...

Halitosisux...... Plaque can only be scraped off easily when it's a recent one like that of days ago. Plaque of months/years can't be scraped off just easily..... It is a known fact that plaque hardens with time and the same thing for biofilm.... When you brush you only take off biofilm of few days ...

I really think that if these people can actually take off biofilm on tongue, they can cure bb.... I really think bb comes from tongue biofilm... I was on metronidazole for two weeks... no change... Even Adyinmur confirms that antibiotics can't penetrate biofilm.... I suspect biofilm is just like tar...

Notanymore...... how do you know this? have you been to their office? And no... what they claim they do- "tongue rejuvenation"- can't be done with a tongue brush, if not everyone will be cured.... Biofilm that has been somewhere for a long time can't just be taken out with a tongue brush.....

Has anyone ever visited here? did you get cured? Please reply.

Hey..... been a long time I posted here.... I got tired of trying.... trying for three months put me in a debt of about $1500 so I've been calming down so far.... lol...... Anyway, what do you guys think about the "National breath Center" in Falls Church Virginia.... They claim to have the...

Hey! Amoxillin doesn't help with bb. I also tried it!!! I'm gonna get metronidazole.... That does the job perfectly......

lol.... PROBIOTICS not antibiotics..... PROBIOTICS are good bacteria... that supress the growth of bad bacteria

Did you try taking probiotics after the antibiotic rounds to prevent another infection? @ Noptical????

did the first antibiotics heal you while you were taking them or not? what is the name of the antibiotics? were you ever given the antibiotics augmentin / amoxillin??? I was just prescribed it and I'm having thoughts as to whether to take it or not...... I also think the problem is from the back of ...

Did you follow up the antibiotics with probiotics to balance the bad bacteria and prevent their over growth again?

how long did it take for probiotics to cure you..... did you every try antibiotics
