Welcome to What’s Up Docs?, the podcast where doctors and identical twins Chris and Xand van Tulleken explore every aspect of our health and wellbeing.

In this episode they want to know about bad breath. Chris' wife calls him out on it when he has it. But what causes it? And is there anything we can do about it? They speak to Dr Praveen Sharma, Associate Professor & Honorary Consultant in Restorative Dentistry, to find out.
