If there are no oral or systemic problems maybe your mouth is getting dry. Take frequent sips of water and use a mouth fresher

Get a consultation to determine cause of your bad breath. If it is a dental reason, simple scaling and strict oral hygiene should cure your problem.

Get your scaling and polishing done ( cleaning of teeth) from a dentist. Then home maintainence with twice a day brushing, flossing and mouthwash. Wait for a few weeks. If bad breath still persists consult a physician to rule out gastric issues like acidity etc.
Health Tips
Mouth breathing should be ruled out as it is an important cause of bad breath

Hi
Bad breath is usually due to excessive deposits of tartar .First do general scaling and polishing followed by mouth rinse.If oral hygiene is good we can suspect gastric acidity.Consult with your gastro entralogist.Take big amla fruit daily once.
