I have been struggling with this problem for several years, doctors are helpless and unable to make a diagnosis. I've already had gastroscopy, ultrasound, liver blood test, kidney and cholesterol tests - everything is fine. The dentist tells me to look for the causes elsewhere, because my teeth are he althy and I have no problem with the gums. Where can I find the cause of my mouth odor? It is a very unpleasant smell and very pungent.

Hello, sometimes the cause of an unpleasant smell from the mouth may be the presence of food remnants and exfoliated epithelium in small cavities on the surface of the tonsils, which are called crypts.

It is a good idea to wash your mouth and rinse your throat deeply after each consumption of food. Regards, Dr. n.med. Krystyna Knypl
