Brushing my teeth?!


Question: Brushing my teeth!?
Even if I brush my teeth extremely well, about two or three hours later, my mouth tastes really gross again!. It actually seems to get worse the better I brush my tongue!. But I have to brush it well to get the nasty taste out!.

I also just went to the dentist a few weeks ago, so I'm doubting I have a disease or something!. Is this normal!? I don't recall this always happening, so is there something I can do about it!? Even after brushing really well and not eating anything, I feel so gross!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
here are different reasons why your breath may smell after a couple of hours of brushing your teeth and tongue!.

-you don't eat!. sometimes your breath will get funky all over again!. i don't know why this happens either, i guess it's bacteria

-bad tonsils!. regardless of how much i brushed and all and scrubbed my tongue my breath smelled horrible!. i had to get them removed due to a bad infections

-not flossing!. ever smell ur floss after not flossing in awhile, it really stinks badly!.

-gum disease

-teeth that are rotting and need fillings aka cavities

there are lots of reasons of why your breath may stink after awhile!. after i brush my teeth and tongue and spit out the toothpaste i still smell bad breath!. it really helps to use a good mouthwash like listerine to get rid of the rest of the smell!. i did it this morning and my breath was so fresh and clean!. i could totally feel comfortable getting close to someone and not worry about odor!. when you brush your tongue swish the used toothpaste around in your mouth as a freshener which means you need to shut up mouth and move the toothpaste all around!. when i don't do that i tend to have that tongue odor left over and then afterwards i use listerine to make things all good againWww@Answer-Health@Com

I have the SAME problem!.!.!. but its been like this since i was little!.!.!. i used to eat a lot of junk food!.!.!. that was a bad idea cuz now i'm fat and i have bad breath all the time! My mom always tells me to brush my teeth in the morning and at night and to floss!. She also said to use fluoride!. My mom used to be a dental assistant, so she's always telling me i need to brush my teeth and now we're talking about braces!!! Great!.!.!.

I'm not much help, but good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

hmm do you have onions frequently or garlic cause that is in your mouth for a while and I still had the taste from the other day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

mints, and usually toothpaste leaves a really weird taste in your mouth its normal, and just dont eat for like a halfhour or so after brushing, also maybe wash your mouth out with water!.
