Halitosis and sticky since I was a child
I am having bad breath since I was a child and my saliva seems to be sticky. I tried different products from over the counter up to the online products from US but there is no difference. I am experiencing anxiety and depression because of this.
Is there any hope with my situation? Approximately, how much would be the total cost to have a normal breath?

Self medication without proper diagnosis is never a good idea.
Have some faith in your dentist and let him/her decide the course of treatment.
Next Steps
Please have a visit with your dentist asap.
The solution can be as much as simple, as teeth cleaning by your dentist to cure bad breath and providing some medication for your, " sticky saliva".
Health Tips
The root cause for your problems can only be found out by some professional.
Self medication may not help without removing the root cause of your troubles.

Your salive is sticky?/ Or u have less salivation?if is it so then u r suffering from xerostomia, don't worry u may use Clohex mouthwash twice a day to gargle.Secondly just check with your dentist if you have any cavity in one or more teeth,cause this may be the reason behind bad breath.
