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.

    I'm suffering too and desperately unhappy :-(

    My dentist suggested post nasal drip so my GP has given me a nasal spray - not working so far

    I've also provided a stool sample to see if I have HP in my stomach

    Helicobacter Pylori so watch this space!

    Desperate for nice breath :-(

    Have you tried TetroBreath it's the only toothpaste and mouthwash that works for me. "Welcome10" is a code for a 10% discount when you sign up for their newsletter.

    Hi I had this problem for a year before I went to my GP. I was referred to an ENT clinic. After being put on High doses of omeprazole before testing negative for helicobacter, I have been given antibiotics, tested for allergies and numerous nasak sprays. Nothing worked an I've now been discharged with the surgeon saying he wouldn't want to operate. My CT was also negative and my sinuses were clear.I still don.t know if its a stomach or a problem related to post nasal drip. It comes and goes so I'm wondering if I have an allergy that was not tested for as they only check the common ones. Its not nice having your 8 and 12 year old kids telling you your breath stinks or asking if you have passed wind.

      I think what it may be is bacteria that forms in the pockets of your throat.. they turn into little white soft stones.. that stink like crap!!! I have suffered with this for ever but didn't know it, til one day I choked on one.. i spit it out and couldn't beleive how bad it smelled.. I would get a slight sense of the odor.. I brush I floss I gargle.. I wonder how many of us with this problem HAVE thier tonsils..   I think those that have tonsils have this issue more.. I am going to try the netty pot thing..   it's AWFUL!!!!!! you do become a shut in.  it's not Crap but it smells like it

      so in my book just as bad. sad

      Has anyone tried a sinus irrigator. I'm thinking this may work to flush out all the bacteria. If you have how did it work for you?

      I had my tonsils removed and it made it worse because now they are gone and there's nothing left to help with the bacteria. I am frustrated with Doctors. They just want money. sad
