I have a problem: I have a bad breath and I do not know how to get rid of it!?
Even though, I brush, floss, scrape my tongue, and rinse my mouth with a mouthwash, Crest Pro-Health. But I feel that the bad breath comes from the saliva....
I am not too sure because currently, I have a mucus in my throat (I will get that checked out), and I feel that is the culprit of the bad breath....
Any ideas how to get rid of it?
crest whitestrips usage question?
hi i bought crest whitestrips premium plus before , and i have a couple of questions that would make the strips work better.
1. after u brush ur teeth without toothpaste to remove plaque , do u rinse it with cold - medium or warm water to open the pores?
2. after i applied the strips to my teeth and the gel starts to work , on my bottom teeth somehow saliva mixes with the gel on my front lower teeth and it stops being really attached to it.
now my question is , do i have to keep pressing on my lower strip to make sure it keeps contact with my teeth , or does that just cause the gel to be pushed away from my teeth and be later on swallowed/spitted.
also when i remove my upper strip , i can see the gel still on my teeth , however the lower strip is just all saliva really.
i guess cuz my lower teeth aint perfectly straight and thats where you produce saliva the most , it just goes under the strips and cause the effect to be less good.
also with what do u rinse after?
thx

I have significant enamel loss due to acidic saliva.(5.5 or lower) The Acid is not coming from my stomach, proven by esophageal ph probe testing.
I am/have had several teeth crowned to prevent further loss and for appearance sake.
It happens while I sleep.
My doctor and dentist are baffled.

Why could I be spitting blood?
I was jogging today, and felt pretty out of breath as usual. I had to force up some mucus, and when I spat, it was mostly red (not just minor streaks). Spat a dozen more times, and each time, same thing. If I simply spit the saliva from my mouth, there's no blood, but if I force up some mucus, there's blood.
As far as I can tell, it's not coming from my gums (my oral health is good), I don't have any lacerations or sores in my throat or mouth, and I haven't had nosebleed.
Recently, I've been constantly feeling the need to purge mucus, like something's in my throat. Eventually, I do it so much that I make myself gag, and sometimes even throw up.
How does parsley help with bad breath?
So everyone knows that parsley is supposed to help with bad breath. What is it about parsley that makes it special? Is it antibacterial?
It seems like all herbs would get the saliva flowing.
Thanks
Question about teeth whitening product: is what I'm doing safe?
I am using whitening strips that supposedly fit around your teeth. They have whitening gel on them. Now, the whitening strips do not fit around my bottom teeth, as I have a permanent retainer behind my front bottom teeth which the strips cannot fold over. As a result, part of the gel is exposed, and comes into contact with my saliva and tongue, thus, causing me to swallow it. Is this unsafe? Should I not use this teeth-whitening method?
whats the worst thing that could happen to you from making out with a relative stranger?
i know you can get a cold sores aka oral herpes. also you could transfer blood born diseases like HIV (but that is supposed to be very rare if not impossible right?) are there any diseases transferable through saliva that are very dangerous? obviously mono is one but say you already are immune also things like meningitis but if thats the case its a fluke you cant really assume people are walking around with meningitis. all this being said are there any other significant health risks to making out with someone you dont know very well?

How do I fix bad breath?
I brush my teeth every morning ( and night ) but later on at school I can start to sense my breath is bad because of the taste. Is it normal. A lot of saliva is produced towards the back of my tongue/mouth, is that a problem, should I just ignore it and swallow it?
