....u think ur funny, dont u? U are trying to tell me what and what doesnt happen to me, do u freakin know me?? are you there when these things happen?....NO, so stop replying to me with your stupid sarcastic comments and grow up!
woooh fella .. How did you think he was being negative to you in anyway?
Was it his comment about how "that's just not possible"? He was talking about the distance of 50 feet.. not a few feet :p
I don't blame you for being paranoid, but here on the site we shouldn't have to be so defensive.. We all know how it is.
i almost never have a smell on the back of my tongue anymore ... except sometimes in the mornings but not every morning... but ive heard that this is not a completely accurate indication that ur breath is fresh?? i wonder if that's true?? i always get mixed answers about that.. it's starting to drive me crazy

does anyone agree?
The tongue is just a great place for bacteria to explore and go nuts. There are a dozen other hiding places in the mouth alone.
I haven't had this in awhile because I floss constantly now, but at times before I would have a bad smell on the floss that came out of certain tooth crevices.
Also, tonsils can be cryptic and have hidden folds and holes in them.
Basically, the whole mouth is a disaster area if there's odor causing bacteria on the loose.
My breath is terrible!! People usually show signs that they can smell my breath within 5 feet. I've been trying all these possible quick fix methods like baking soda irrigation, vinegar, etc, and so far I think it's actually made my breath worse. I don't know if it's because I practically stopped using my hydrofloss or halitomafia products...but I don't know. Does gum make anybody's breath worse?? Before I go to work I always put in a piece of gum knowing that I won't be able to freshen my breath for awhile (I'm a server), and I notice that my guests have a worse expression on their face then after I spit it out. Ugh...
Yeah I think gum makes my breath worse sometimes, especially the winterfresh flavors. After the initial few minutes of mint wears off I begin to taste this weird flavor in the back of my throat... I can't explain it that well, it's like half winterfresh, half hot-nastiness.

Did you burp a lot before or after you acquired bb. I wasn`t burping a lot when I had normal breath but now I could actually do it(burp) anytime I want to. Maybe it`s a sign that there`s something wrong with our digestive system.

Gum Helps me since mine is due to a bit of dry mouth.
Trident Tropical Twist = Best gum ever!!
It also contains xyitol like orbit which helps. Trident does actually contain xyitol (look at the back)
It helps me and definatly helps the paranoid part.
If i didnt have gum i would have a nervous break down.
Even if i had extra only orbit and trident tropical twist will work.
gums with sugars make it worse.
One question for you guys. Does sweets actually make your breath worse?

Burping??? according to Jimi thats acid reflux since he has the same symptom.
I think I'm just paranoid, but sometimes it seems like when I'm stopped in traffic with the windows down someone driving by will touch their nose. I think that it's such a nasty smell that even a bit of it makes you involuntarily react. Also, do you guys ever notice people coughing around you more than usual?
