Bad breath could be because of regurgitation or pyrrohea of teeth.. need to see it clinically.. if it’s pyrrohea it won’t go on its own by brushing or mouthwash.. so it has to be cleaned by the dentist
Next Steps
Kindly consult or visit

Sinusitis and mouth breathing can lead to bad breath. You have to concentrate on the root cause of bad breath. Treat the cold, bad breath will subside. Consult her pediatrician and teach her to take steam inhalation.
Next Steps
Consult pediatrician.
