Metallic taste in mouth...

Hello, does anyone experience metallic taste in mouth? I also feel like my teeth feel "gritty" if I grind them. I've been feeling this for a few weeks now. I thought it was the Tumeric capsules I've been taking so I discontinued them about 2 weeks ago.... I was also taking Olive Leaf Extract capsules but it's not that either. Could it be IBS? I actually have been feeling fine regarding my IBS, so what gives?
