How to stop bad breath?

Posted on December 10, 2010

hey, i am a 17 year old male and it seems i get a lot of tonsil stones and I HATE THEM SO MUCH and i would think that i am getting bad breath due to tonsil stones... i was told i have large tonsils and i am wondering if there is a solution to this without having to get my tonsils removed. I don't want to turn girls off when i kiss them. I ALWAYS chew gum and i don't like doing that so much as i do.

Any tips to stop bad breath would be great. and tonsil stones.

What is a safe treatment for mono-related bad breath?

I was recently diagnosed with mononucleosis, and it is secreting a foul odor from the infection location. What is a good remedy for this awful breath I have been experiencing?
If anybody can empathize, keep in mind my throat catches fire when irritated and my tonsils feel like they want to rip off every time I swallow, so something harsh like Listerine may be out of the question.
i do all the normal brushing like any other person

Why does food get stuck between my tonsils and cheek?

I have to use the back side of my toothbrush to press on skin in front of tonsils to get it out. I have tried rinsing gargling and no luck. The problem is it can give me real bad breath.
Should someone that knows ears nose and throat answer this? Two dentists have just dismissed it.

Hi, I have HORRIBLE breath that will not go away. My ENT says that I have tonsil stones and that removing my tonsils will cure this embarrasing problem. Has anyone had this surgery for the same reason? If so, did it cure there bad breath?

What can cause REALLY BAD breath aside from a germy mouth?

Posted on August 6, 2010

Okay, so my breath really stinks sometimes, and it's not because i haven't brushed... i always brush my teeth, tongue, the works. I do have my tonsils but they look pink, not white or bumpy. I don't smoke, i don't eat garlic or onions. It stinks so bad that people can smell it even with my mouth closed, apparently the air that comes out of my nostrils smells too.
I think it's something in my stomach, cause it does feel a little acid sometimes, but at others i don't even feel it and people tell me i smell! Also, i don't stink all the time. I don't have rotten teeth or cavities. What could be causing this? What can i do to get rid of it?
