A member asked:
Why does my throat have a bad taste in it even when i brush my teeth?

Halitosis: Bad breath can be caused by many different factors, including sinus infections, periodontal problems, smoking, cavities, acid reflux, and your diet. Address all of these possibilities with your dentist and physician, and I'm confident that your problem will at least be minimized, and hopefully eradicated.

Bad taste: Because the bad taste may be due to other causes. If you are not flossing you are missing 35% of your tooth enamel, especially the part between your teeth. you may have food impaction, gum pockets, gum disease with pus collection and/or bleeding gums, infected tonsils/adenoids, GERD, Diabetes, metabolic disorders, or it may be from the foods you eat. See BOTH your General Dentist and Physician.
