Bad breath can often be the first sign of a disease. But how do doctors define bad breath and what are the major causes of bad breath?...

Q: Bad Taste When Eating Sweets

I don't know if I should be concerned. I have had a bad after taste when I eat sweets. It is a weird, almost milky taste. It is so bad that I have just cut out the sweets. It is with any sweets though. I had some bread with cin. On it, and I got the bad taste. Anything with a bunch of sugar, I seem to get this taste. I know it should be a good thing, because I am not eating the sweets. It just concerns me. Any ideas would be great.

Thanks,

Go see your dentist, you could have an infected tooth that you only notice that bad taste when you eat sweets because the sugars will inhance the taste of the presence of an infection or abcess.
