Eat a peach everyday. Maybe two or three peaches. They are known for making the teeth smell pleasant and are therapeutic for the gum tissue as well. My grandmother's best friend used to swear by it!

You probably have an infection. A foul smell anywhere in the body is usually a sign of infection [except for gas ;)]

A lot of universities that have Dental Hygiene Programs will accept walk-ins in order to give their students experience. You might call the university and ask if they do this, it would be a good way to help the future generations of Dental Care and to get an answer to your question without going bankrupt!

o dear i have no idea go to a dentist sounds really gross

You have a rotting tooth get it checked out at the dentist.

This should cover your question:(1)...Your are describing a classic case of either gum infection or tooth decay in a location not visible to you. It primarily sounds like an abscess around the tooth that is not at this time affecting the root. (2)..There are two possibilities with regard to getting the tooth issue resolved: If there is a Dental College near you they have an "Out Patient Clinic" and that clinic provides dental services to the public for Free or a very low cost depending on their financial status...OR...If one of your local hospitals has a Dental Intern-ship Program, they too provide free to low cost dental services. Good luck and I wish you well.
