White Hairy Tongue / Bad breath?

April 7, 2010

in causes of bad breath

So i’ve been having this white tongue for bout a year. I believe it gives me bad breath.

My tongue is white and hairy. I think papillae is what its called, overgrew and it traps wateva food i eat between them and cause bad breath. It looks like thin white fur.
I use a tongue scrapper everyday(doesnt hurt when i scrap it) and brush my tongue at least 2 times a day.
Also tried brushing it with sea salt and rinsing with hydrogen peroxide.
It always looks pinker when i brush with toothpaste.
I drink at least 3L of water a day.

I dont think its thrush because i havent been hurt in any other way except it giving bad breath.
i’ve seen my local doctor and he said it was nothing, i still didnt believe him
The dentist suggested i need more vitamin C so im drinking more orange juice and eating more fruits.

Plz can sum1 help me, bad breath has really damaged my social life
