Have your wisdom tooth extracted, bacteria is forming around and under your wisdom tooth. This build up of bacteria is causing the odor to spread around your mouth, remove the cause and continue your good oral hygiene.

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.
