   Since it seems that he already knows then he needs to ask his dentist what he can do about it, he may have to brush his tongue also. My friend had bad breath and the dentist found that she has som pockets on her tonsils that food was getting trapped in and rotting. That may be a possiblility also.

   His breath may be coming from a bad tooth, has he been to a dentist regularly and had his teeth cleaned lately ? Or the odor could be coming from his stomach, he should try eating a healthier diet. Also charcoal capsules can help, go to a health food store and ask there, because chlorophyll tablets can also help.

   I had the same problem with a friend. Is he nervous about something because when I get nervous about something my breath stinks…anyways thats not the point maybe he should go to the dentist and explain everything may be a dental issue. Or you know what he should get those tooth brushes with tongue scrubbers because the tongue is usually the one that holds in all the bacteria that make breath stink!

   i would probably tell someone close to me that he or she has a bad breath because i am concerned about their condition and as much as possible i would want to save them from future embarrassment.

   most people do not know that they have bad breath right under their nose, and all they can rely to be able to know about it is for someone who will honestly tell them in private of course, and in a manner that is nice and tactful.

   bad breath can have a lot causes and it is not only concerned about having a dirty mouth, gum disease, and smoking. it can be cause by certain illnesses like stomach illnesses and sinuses.

   one key to successfully get rid of bad breath is proper oral care and keeping the mouth well hydrated. seek the help of your dentist if all commonsense measures for bad breath has been taken and still bad breath persists. for more tips on how to beat bad breath visit
