Get scaling and polishing done, and also if any cavity is present then get it filled. If you are suffering from dry mouth then sip water more frequently.

Hello, bad breath could be because of deposits on teeth surface or food lodged in between teeth. Visit a dentist and get your scaling and polishing done.bad breath could also be because of stomach problems , not enough drinking water,fasting for long time. Brush your teeth twice daily, night brushing is very important. Floss regularly. Rinse after every meal. Visit dentist every 6 months.

This problem may be related to nutritional disorders. Please consult a physician for the same. From oral health point of view, you are advised to use a tongue cleaner to clean out the white coating.
