Can't find the root cause for Bad breath
I'm having bad breath since so many years. I've checked up with dentists and by checking my mouth they told no issues with the teeth. Checked with ent and the response is same. Some how got to know indigestion might be one of the reason. checked with gastro and he told no issues based on the symptoms. He also told issue might be in the mouth. Can some one help me to find the root cause for bad breath. Is there any test that can determine the exact cause. please help....
