Bad mouth odour
Hello Doctor I'm having bad mouth odour from almost one year, recently I consulted a famous dental doctor having expr. Of 18years and done tooth cleaning doctor told that from teeth it's not the problem and suggested me to go for endoscopy, I'm worrying lot what happened with me, I brush twice a day, odour starts immediate after half an hour of brush. I use to smoke and drink thought it's for the same reason and left these habits between for five months but still problem is same. Plz suggest me what is the next step I can take and whom to consult.
Thanks in advance

Endoscopy should be done only on the recommendation of a gastroenterologist. Regarding bad breath, there can be many causes other than oral hygiene. Sinusitis can cause it and also stomach problems, acidity etc.
