If I were you I'd go to see my doctor first regarding your gastrointestinal problem and get this problem straightened out asap. A little known fact; bad breath can be a sign that something inside you is wrong. This happened to me once when I had a gall bladder infection.I had very bad breath, cleared up after the operation.

Your problem may be with your stomach.  Do you get heartburn or sour stomach?  Do you have diabetes?  You may have acid reflux disease, or you might be burning fat and be acidotic.  If brushing and flossing don't work, talk to your doctor.  I don't recommend using mouthwash, as that can damage the inside of your mouth and cause further mouth odor.

I am assuming that you have a hygienists clean your teeth at the Dentist. Having said that, do you floss at least twice a day? You floss to remove tartar and food particles between the teeth. Do you eat a lot of garlic or spicy food, that can cause terrible breath? You also need to brush your tongue as a lot of bacteria can form there. If all that is taken care of, you could check out your sinuses and tonsils. If you have an infection in either it can cause an odour. Last but not least, check with your Family Dr., perhaps you could have a bad stomach that requires looking in to. I hope something works but if all fails, go to a good breath mint or gum with chlorophyll.

If you are asking about placing your mouth on another persons privates (have to say it like that so it wont "star out" on me)-then no, you won't get bad breath from it.  The bacteria that populate the mouth and those that populate the privates are different.  At any rate, having a sore or cut in your mouth wouldnt effect that.  If there are pathological bacteria present which infect blood, you may increase your chances are getting it-but the other person would have to have some blood-borne disease.  There are no recorded cases of HIV passing from a man to a woman in this way.  There are studies indicating that kissing, or drinking after another person may change the populations of bacteria inhabing the mouth, and this may change the smell of your breath-so in the case of bad breath, you are at much greater risk from kissing the mouth, than kissing....anything else.

Umm I think the bacteria in your mouth causes bad breath. Not brushing your teeth can result in having these bacteria, constantly. \n\nIf the person is your good friend I recommend you tell them when no one is around and hand them a stick of gum or something.

milk is full of bacterian culture which causes bad breath, so it's only natural that you would have noticed a difference by not drinking it. the same goes with cheese, not recommend, but if you brush your teeth enough you shouldnt see a difference. try flossing too, thats where bacterias are usualy hidding, between you teeth

start with the initial appt of seeing the hygienist for xrays- alot of things could be going on but let's first rule out periodontal disease which can cause a bad breath situation.

That is sad. Some people have digestion problems and cant help their breath is bad, other are just nasty and dont take care of their teeth. I would be honest with him, but dont tell him his mouth smells like booty gone wrong, offer him a mint or something. Definitly dont be agressive and rude about it.

If you use a tongue cleaner, floss, eat mints, and mouthwash it should work.  If you are still having bad breath after doing all this, see a dentist.  As weird as it seems, it could be signs of a serious condition.

The clinical term for bad breath is halitosis.  Bad breath is primarily caused by poor oral hygiene, but can also can be caused by retained food particles or gum disease. Proper brushing including brushing the tongue, cheeks, and the roof of the mouth will remove bacteria and food particles. Flossing removes accumulated bacteria, plaque and food that may be trapped between teeth. Mouth rinses are effective in temporary relief of bad breath. Consult your dentist and/or physician if the condition persists.\n\nIt is important to practice good oral hygiene, such as brushing and flossing your teeth at least twice a day. To alleviate the odor, clean your tongue with your toothbrush or a tongue scraper, a plastic tool that scrapes away bacteria that builds on the tongue. Chewing sugar-free gum also may help control the odor. If you have dentures or a removable appliance, such as a retainer or mouthguard, clean the appliance thoroughly before placing it back in your mouth. Before you use mouth rinses, deodorizing sprays or tablets, talk with your dentist because these products only mask the odor temporarily, and some products work better than others.
