See below: If you have seen your dentist and was told tgat there are no dental problems, one condition i can think of that can cause halitosis is chronic post nasal drips produced by chronic inflammation. Also if you have pockets in tonsils causing accumulation of food particles can do this too. See an ENT specialist to rule out both condition. Good luck.
