Bad breadth or Halitosis can be due to various factors. Even underlying systemic conditions can result in Halitosis. Brushing twice alone will not help, kindly use other oral hygiene aids and measures along with the right brushing technique after getting evaluated by a dentist.
Probiotics aid in maintaining good gut health.
Next Steps
Please visit a dentist atleast once in 6months or a year for a checkup and cleaning/scaling.

Hello sir. Bad breath since many years means there is a real health issue. It could be from dental and gum diseases or even underlying medical condition. How frequently do you visit for dental checkup? Ideally you should visit every six months. Try to do that. This probably will help.Hope this was useful.
