Bad breath

Hi I have been suffering from bad breath. Previously I used to feel better with scraping my tongue but from last 1 year it's been worse. No amount of tongue scraping and flossing has helped. My tongue buildup used to get huge within short span of time. I got endoplasty done, so no ent and my dentist said no issues. Even gastro couldn't help in this case. But as a last resort I have started trying chlorohexidine mouthwash and it worked wonders for me. There's no morning breath and the tongue buildup has reduced too. So it's worked But I found that chlorohexidine shouldn't be used longterm. So could you please suggest any other mouthwash that can be used long term for the same. Thank you

Did xray on teeth during pregnancy

My daughter and I went to the dentist for filling. Dentist did a quick xray on my daughter's teeth and I was in the room (it was an open room). For me I forgot to mention that I'm 22 weeks pregnant, she did a quick xray on one tooth. After I told her about my pregnancy, she regretted it and asked to tell me next time and with this xray nothing will happen. There was no apron used during xray. Now I'm scared whether it will be for the fetus.

Trauma on roof of mouth

Dear Doctor, Something pricked the inside of my mouth on July 2nd. Three days later, it turned into a wound-like sore. Even now, five days later, it hasn't healed. It hurts when I eat or press against it with my tongue, though there is no pain or bleeding otherwise. Please suggest a treatment; I am worried.
