Metal taste in mouth
7 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Different things: The taste might be a symptom of gum disease. Even if you don't have gum problems, poor oral hygiene can affect taste. Be sure to brush your teeth carefully at least twice a day and use a tongue scraper to remove the bacteria and debris that can collect on your tongue. Dental work done in the past can break down and alter taste. Blood can also have a metallic taste. Some medications taste metallic.

Metal taste: I would suggest looking at your medications and supplements to see if any of these could cause this and also visit a dentist if you have any fillings.
