Hello,
It's common to wonder about persistent bad breath after a cleaning.
While a cleaning removes plaque and tartar buildup, which are common culprits, there are several other factors that can contribute to this issue-
* Food: Strong-smelling foods or high sugar intake.
* Dehydration: Not enough saliva to wash away bacteria. (Dry mouth)
* Oral Hygiene: Not cleaning your tongue or flossing well.
* GI Issues: Acid reflux or other digestive problems.
* Sinus Issues
Next Steps
Review your diet, hydration, and oral hygiene.
If it continues, see a physician to rule out any underlying medical conditions.

Hello
The bad breath might be caused by other reasons also like adenoids or ulcers in the stomach
Try to roll out any such causes. Also follow the order hygiene instructions very properly.
