Dd1 always has bad breath, can she use any sprays?

Dd1 (10) has always suffered with bad breath, she brushes her teeth every day but within a few minutes it smells again. Her adenoids and throat are fine, no problems with her sinuses so I'm not sure what causes it.

Can she use any of the breath freshening sprays or is she too young?

Mouthwash? Is she drinking enough? My DD has had this too.

I'm assuming you've sought medical advice? I'd make appointments with dr and dentist again though. Bad smelling breath isn't right if she has good oral hygiene, cleans her teeth etc. Doesn't necessarily have to be mouth or teeth, could be stomach, or something like diabetes.

I'd go for a good mouthwash before any sprays though. But def get advice off a dentist.

She sees a dentist ( saw one a few weeks ago and all is ok in her mouth ), have been to the doctors in the past and tonsils and adenoids are fine, she drinks a lot when at home, probably less at school but makes up for it at home. Will speak to the doctor again ( she needs to go about another issue anyway ). I have bought her some mouth wash to try but she's not great at rinsing and hates the taste of mint Grin.
