you need to scrape your tongue
Brush your tongue. Thats what my mom always told me.

i was just about 2 ask this! help?
your bowels smell bad so it goes up your esophagus and out of your mouth. Liver disorders can causre this problem as well as bad oral hygiene like not flossing or brushing your teeth gums and tongue.
Take this test get a white piece of cloth and wipe your tongue starting from the back of your tongue you might get a gag reflex and wipe hard and scrub to the front of the tongue. what color did the cloth come out?
Several things can cause bad breath.
1. A dry mouth (drink plenty of water)
2. A sinus infection or post-nasal drip (get your sinuses checked out by an ENT or your GP)
3. Plaque build-up on your teeth (see your dental hygenist)
4. Dental cavities (have a check-up by your dentist).
As well as brushing your teeth, ensure that you use an anti-plaque mouthwash which will reach places you cannot due to your braces and don’t forget – brush your tongue, gums, palate and interior of your mouth as well when you brush. Rinse twice.
Oh that sucks having braces. Its harder to floss.
Flossing is a big key to getting rid of bad breath. If you can floss once a day, and scrape your tongue twice day, and brush twice a day then within 2 weeks your breath will be long gone of that odor.
Also include mouth wash.
But Trust me, you won’t have any. and if you do noone will be able to smell it because it is sooo light.
Good Luck!
i have braces to so i k now your pain. brush your tounge. try a new stonger toothpaste. and i know they tell you not to chew gum but chew 5 gum or eclipse and your bad breth will be gone for a while. also, if you dont chew gum, you can use a listerene strip. those thing really work! lol. hope this helps!
