I have this horrid poo smell from my mouth. I brush my teeth twice a day, floss, use Dentyl PH mouthwash, I have the best oral hygeine of anyone I know but I still have this smell. I am too embarrassed to even ask my flriends or family to tell me my breath stinks. I am becoming totally reclusive because of it. Id rather go to my GP and tell him ive got an STD. I know ive got it coz sometimes people look around and ask if ive farted, and I see people with babies smelling their nappies when I speak. It really is starting to badly affect my life but I just cant pluck up the courage ot go to my GP. How on earht can i ay \"DR, My breath smells like poo!\" Please, if anyone has any tips let me know.

    Try to stay away from dairy and eat sugare free mints and there are products that neutralize the smell, (drops), but they are pricey and try putting a little mouthwash in your drinking water. It will only provide hours of fresh breath. It does help!!!

    Ways to Deal With Breath That Smells Like Poop

    - The cause of why your breath smells like poop will determine how to treat it. There are several options. Often times, you can treat your bad breath at home.

    - Something as simple as brushing and flossing your teeth twice a day can take care of the problem.

    - You should also avoid alcohol, tobacco and foods with strong odors like garlic and onions.

    - While you are working to treat your condition, you can eat herbs like mint and parsley to help cover up your bad breath.

     -If you are suffering from dental issues, you will need to see a dentist to take care of the problem. Besides getting your teeth and gums cleaned, you can have abscesses and cavities treated. Antibacterial toothpaste and mouthwashes are available by prescription so your dentist may prescribe them to help with your bad breath.

    - Sometimes you have any underlying medical condition causing your breath to smell like poop. In this case, you will have to see a doctor to diagnose and treat the problem. Usually when you start to feel better, your breath will smell better too.

      If what you said is right, this chat room would not exist right now. People who suffer this problem likely brush teeth 5 to 6 time a day including flossing. Cut out all sort of foods including your list from their diet. Seek atleast 4 to 5 different specialist doctors including dentist, end up zero solution. Doctors dont understand.

      Including many different type of tooth paste and mouthwashes.

      We have tried it all. We been looking for a solution for years and some even decades.

      I've been doing some more research and found out that parasites like worms etc could cause bad breath. So I am working on eliminating them. I've read post with ppl that are suffering with parasites also complain of have a bad smell coming from their nose and mouth.

      How do you know that you have parasites? I have two colonoscopy down...doctors didn't mention any worm or parasite.

      Please update...if your treatment help you.

      Wow, sounds like a real candidate, but you get to the end of the article and it suggests that there is only a temporary cure!? Still, a hydrogen breath test would be a starting point and take it from there.

      i've always been convinced that the problem is gastro-intestinal-related.

      Thanks for sharing.

      I am going to tell you guys how to cure your bad breath, but first, if you have your tonsils AND have CONSTANT bad breath you must see a ENT doctor and get that taken care of. Ok, moving on. Without getting all scientific, (except to say that like 95% of ALL bad breath is on the tongue, and if you research you will find the specific microbes that have taken over and killed off the good ones, and you can learn how to control the bad ones) with.... Zinc.

      Hear me out.

      Go to your grocery store or Wal Mart. Buy a bottle of zinc, a bottle of sesame oil and a bag of xylitol. Go home, empty the bottle of zinc into your blender and powder it. Add xylitol, a bit of oil and some distilled water to make a paste. Take your finger and rub this through your mouth but mainly on the back of your tongue, leave it on for as long as you can stand having that paste in your mouth, spit it out, scrape your tongue, brush your teeth be amazed....

      Zinc deficiency not only causes bad breath but it keeps the bad bacteria in your mouth from producing sulphur compounds that stink. Trust me and I hope this works for all of you

      Yes I have tried it. Zinc works very well to stop bad breath, especially if rubbed on the tongue, however it won't fix the problem only mask it 100x better than anything else.

      To fix it you need to get rid of the bad bacteria and repopulate your mouth with good ones. This is where dental probiotics come in. I'm talkin buy a few different brands - do research on the best strains - and take like 4x the recommended dose. This will flood your mouth with good bacteria and crowd out the bad bacteria that causes the poop/egg/sulfur smell.... I even take regular probiotics and empty them onto my tongue, like a 70 billion probiotic, never before has my mouth felt so fresh and we're talking like 6 years of 24/7 bad breath. FLOOD your mouth with good strains of bacteria and they will crowd out the bad ones....

      Hi, may I ask what probiotics you use?  This forum doesn't like you mentioning brand names so you may have to message me!  Am looking at taking probiotics myself (have suffered from bb since I was 14) and I also want to stock them on my website.  Thank you!
