The most effective treatment of bad breath is to treat the cause. Poor oral hygiene can be improved by regular brushing and flossing, as well as regular dental checkups. Gentle brushing of the tongue should be part of daily oral hygiene. In addition to good oral hygiene, the judicious use of mouthwashes is helpful. Mouth dryness, experienced at night or during fasting, or due to certain medications and medical conditions, can contribute to bad breath. Dryness can be avoided by drinking adequate amounts of water. Chewing gum may be beneficial. As mentioned, some medications, such as some high blood pressure medications, can cause dry mouth. If this problem is significant, a medication change, under the supervision of one's health care provider, may improve the dry-mouth condition.

Okay, I had sort of the same thing - maybe. I was in college, just listening to some other students reading their book reports. All of a sudden, I felt real flushed, felt like I had turned real pale in the face and that I couldn't really catch my breath. I was also getting a little dizzy. I told the prof what was going on and she said that my face was ghost white. She actually made another student go with me to the campus clinic. When I got there, they saw me right away and could not get a pulse. They waited 5 minutes and still could not get a pulse. So, I ended up in the emergency room. On the ride over there, I started to feel like big, heavy books were being stacked on my chest. Things started hurting pretty bad and I thought I was goinna die from a heart attack! Got to the ER and there were about 50 people in there, waiting for me. After they stripped my clothes off of me, people were doing all kinds of tests on me at the same time, they finally got a pulse. My heart rate was 270/140. WoW! I was essentially at death's door getting ready to knock. They found out that what I have is SVT - superventricular tachycardia. It's an extra heart beat that happens every once in a while and if it's not caught soon, you could die from it. So, after taking the medicatios to fix it and they didn't work, I ended up having a heart ablation done. This is where they go into your heart through your groin with 6 different catheters. You are totally awake during the procedure, because they ask you many questions. Once they get into the right position, they bring your heart rate up to heart attack level and then they burn (zap)that extra rate out. They say it's not supposed to ever happen again, but it did for me, but only once and that happened 20 years apart and I was under a lot of stress!!! Anyway, get yourself to a doctor as soon as possilble. This is something you don't want to fool around with. Best of luck to you and I hope they find the problem real soon, but the only way they can do that, is if you get in there for an appointment.

Eight glasses of water throughout the day. Instead of sucking on breath mints, keep a bottle of water by your side. Bad breath is caused by sulfur compounds in your mouth, and sipping water frequently helps wash away those compounds and trigger the production of breath-neutralizing saliva.

You mean like killer morning breath? Then definitely use mouthwash and floss before you go to bed, and make sure you have sugar-free gum (like Dentyne ice) with you during the day- If you chew sugary gum with your mouth closed, the bacteria in your mouth feed off of that, and there is no fresh air circulating in your mouth. And try not to drink milk with your breakfast- oh, the horror of morning breath plus milk that's been souring in your mouth with a toothpaste aftertaste. Ew.

Put it IN the glass, then garggle with it! LOL

Don't eat, don't drink, don't open your mouth!
Bad breathe comes from what you eat. Like farting, we all have it from time to time. Antacids can often make it worse!
You know when you go out for dinner, and it comes with that little bit of green stuff on it? (parsley), Eat it afterwards!

have your teeth checked. you could have a bad tooth, even if you have no pain. gargle with listerine and brush 2-3 times a day. stay away from onions, garlic and all spicy foods.use breath spray or sugarless breath mints.

Do the oral hygiene that they are talking about but if still it doesn't work. Maybe you have a problem inside your stomach. That's why it stinks in the mouth. Better detoxify yourself. Take Gluthathione/Met-thathione for 3 months its very good for the body and skin and detoxify our body.

see your dentist you may have a infection or a decaying tooth.Try brushig your tounge and mouthwash and check with doctor for other causes like tonsil stones which have a horrid stench that can be treated with medication if it is persistant or it may just be caused by common cold or a weak immune system.Start with dental exan and doctors exam.if you cough up white particles that smell bad its tonsil stones.
