How do I tell my friend if he has a bad hygiene problem
He just received his PHD in physics but he has not able to get a job. According to him, he had wonderful interviews but fell thru. One thing I notice that his teeth are somewhat yellow and the breath is overwhelming. How do I point this out to him without hurting his feeling?

Yeah there's no way to tell someone they have poor hygiene without it coming across mean or preventing that person from becoming defensive. You just need to be as direct, specific, and non-punishing as you can.
Or just tell him he smells like a decaying bag of ****

If he is a close friend, just saying that his breath stinks and his teeth are yellow shouldn't be a relationship ender.

Tell him to breath in a dog's face...they sniff asses, so any negative response should clue him in.

OMG, this is a tough subject. Ive been here. You have to tell him directly.
The problem with halitosis (sp?) is it can be related to very serious conditions in his digestive system. He needs to have it checked. http://www.webmd.com/oral-health/guide/bad-breath

He's a physicist. He has no feelings of which he is aware.
