Hi, main reason for bad breath is deposition of calculus on teeth or sore throat. Visit a dentist for oral examination and scaling and oral prophylaxis. Also brush twice a day and use tongue cleaner daily. Take care

Hi,
It's really unfortunate that at such a young tender age, you are suffering from Bad Breath.
There are multiple causes for this.
1) There might be cavities in your teeth.
2) You might be suffering from gum disease and bleeding gums.
In both the above cases, visit your local dentist and rectify the problem.
3) You need to increase your water intake and also avoid starving for long periods.
4) Use a non alcohol based mouthwash.
Hope this answers your query.
If you still have any doubts, feel free to ask.
