not a dentist but my husband had a similar problem as this. THe rod is a titanium rod most likely.. The hole probly starts to smell funny and taste wierd because there is food up there just rotting away. Food can get in the creavaces in our mouths and thats what can give you that horrible taste and smell. YOu need this plastic tube that has a plastic like needle on the end. ALl you have to do is shoot water up there to rinse it out. YOu can use listerine if you want. My suggestion is stop by a dentist office or even an oral surgeons and ask for this plastic thing. It works really well!! Good luck!

listerine

mouth wash

make an appointment with your dentist asap. they'll fit you in, in the next couple of days

i think you need a root canal

You answered your own question: You need help from a dentist.

Brush teeth, Mints, Chewing Gum

Do NOT attempt to treat this yourself!!!!!! The odor indicates the presence of an infection. You need a reputable PERIODONTIST. Book an appointment right away. Failing to do so can be FATAL. Please go!!!!

you need to see a dentist. chances are you had a crown put on that tooth and its infected. . . .

You have an infection. Go to the dentist. In the meantime, breath mints.

mouth wash or salt water

The odor is anerobic bacteria will go away seee the dentist!!
