Hello,
I am Dr.Neha Gupta (dentist) and am glad to address to your query here.

You need to run the floss between ALL your teeth.

Meds can sometimes create bad smells on your body, especially your mouth.

Try to drink lots of water to keep your mouth moist.

Mouthwash contains alcohol which can be drying. When the tongue & mouth dry, the bacteria there, emit smells.

visit the dentist and get full mouth scaling done every 6 months.
maintain good oral hygiene.

Take care and please keep me informed of your progress at healthcaremagic through my profile directly.

hello there,

Bad or fowl mouth odor is caused by number of reasons such as;

Poor oral hygiene , improper brushing techinques which lead to accumulation of food debris and bacterial plaque and calculus deposits deep in the gum pockets and root surfaces of the teeth .

bacterial plaque and calculus on the teeth gives fowl odor.

Gingivitis and periodontitis is another condition which leads to fowl mouth odor.

Ulceration when infected with bacterial or viral invasion may lead to fowl smell.

alcohol consumption and smoking promotes plaque deposition and gives fowl odor.

as you have mentioned you have flatulence , GERD nad other gastric problems may also lead to acidic mouth odor , you need to consult a physician to get the problem confirmed.

i would suggest you to go for professional scaling and root planing of all the teeth , maintain good oral hygiene by regular tooth brushing and flossing.

use antiseptic oral rinse for daily mouth rinsing helps in reducing the mal odor.

i hope this helps ,

take care.
