Hi there...there are lot of causes for bad breath... Most common being improper oral hygiene and indigestion.
First of all you need to consult a nearby dentist for professional teeth cleaning, followed by home care measures like tongue cleaning, brushing and flossing twice daily and use of a good mouthwash. OR
If you have digestion problem...consult a gastro-enterologist..
Take care..!!

I would recommend you to take a consultation with a dentist to find out the cause of the bad breath,if it's related to your teeth or gums the dentist will do the needful.Sometimes though the reason could be some respiratory infection or gastric trouble,your dentist then will refer you to your physician to find out the cause.

Hi..first undergo teeth scaling from dentist, followed by gum flap surgery with bone graft if required after x ray.

Visit your nearby Dentist to check if you have any plaque or tartar. Get it cleaned if so then maintain it by brushing twice a day & using mouthwash regularly. Secondly the bad odour can also be present in people with chronic gastric problems. Make sure to visit a Gastroenterologist & get it treated if so. Good luck
