| A couple times a week my DS breath will smell like a dirty diaper. This is both in the am and during the day. We do a really good job at brushing his teeth. Anybody else have this problem. He is almost 2. |

| I read once that most of the "smell" that comes from a mouth is actually from the tongue, so unless you are brushing your child's tongue that is probably it. I noticed my son's breath smells, too, even after we have brushed his teeth, but he will not allow us to brush his tongue so that may be the problem. |

| We have been brushing his tongue. Any other ideas? |

Flossing?
Sinus issues? |

| How do you get to the tongue? I am luck to be able to get into my 15-month-old's mouth to get to her teeth. |

| Has your DC been ill? I notice this when my DS has a cold. I think it's from the post-nasal drip. |
