Solution for having odourless and fresh mouth
From past 2 years m suffering from bad smell in my mouth it smells like alcohol and some times very unplesant smell. I m not able to speak to any one going close to them for this reason I just keep quite in the places where I have to talk. I consulted dentist too he recommended to use a mouth wash but it works for only for few hours. I dint had this problem at all I use to go close and talk to my friends, relatives etc.... but now M not able to go close and talk to my own mother. I drink lot of water eat greens . I wanna good suggestion that will really work.

Hi!
Let's start with the simple and obvious things. You need to brush often. You're supposed to brush your teeth after every meal, but at least twice a day, for two minutes at a time. (If you're a busy person, keep a toothbrush in your work desk, gym locker, backpack, whatever, so that you can sneak off after meals and brush in the day.) Also brush your tongue. Food particles will leech onto your taste buds, and promote the growth of bacteria (which causes the smell) on your tongue.
Flossing is also incredibly important. It gets the plaque and left over food off of and out from in between your teeth and gums where your toothbrush couldn't reach. Remember, any leftover food promotes the growth of bacteria which is where most people get bad breath. Flossing also helps protect you from heart disease, who would've thought, right?
Another cause of bad breath is digestion. As foods are digested and absorbed into your bloodstream, they're eventually carried to your lungs and smells are given off in your breath. If you eat foods with strong odors, brushing, flossing and even using mouthwash will merely just cover up the odor temporarily. The odor will not go away completely until the foods have passed through your body. (I loovvee onions, and whenever I cook dinner and use an entire onion, I pay for it ALL day the next day and no amount of brushing seems to help.)
You're also supposed to replace your toothbrush every couple of months. So don't forget to change out that old yucky brush from time to time, and be sure you're drinking plenty of water. It has a ton of health benefits, but it will keep your mouth moist and help wash away the smelly bacteria in your mouth between meals. Chewing gum apparently also helps because it causes you to produce more saliva which washes away bacteria. Also, the minty ones help to mask any smell.
If changing up your diet, drinking lots of water and flossing and brushing three times a day don't help, I'd say talk to your dentist about it again because it might mean you have a gum disease or something of the like.
Good luck and may God bless your situation!
xoxo
