Halitosis/bad breath is commonly due to plaque accumulation, tongue coating, gingivitis/periodontitis, or dental caries; also consider xerostomia and GI causes.
strict oral hygiene—brushing twice daily, interdental cleaning, and tongue scraping, along with adequate hydration and diet control. Use Colgate Plax or Listerine Total Care mouth wash for maintenance
If persistent, recommend dental evaluation (online/offline) for scaling, caries assessment, and to rule out periodontal or systemic causes.
