Hello. Halitosis, also called as bad breath, is caused due to various reasons. The most common cause of halitosis is bad oral hygiene, which includes gingivitis (inflammation and bleeding of gums), periodontitis.
If particles of food are left in the mouth, their breakdown by bacteria produces sulfur compounds. Kindly undergo Scaling and Polishing treatment.
Scaling is a professional teeth cleaning treatment, in which the stains and calculus (tartar) are removed from under the gums. This treatment not only keeps your teeth clean, but also keeps your gums healthy, firm and cures bad breath problems.
Teeth whitening cannot be performed at home and need a professional treatment. There are various teeth whitening procedures.
Kindly visit a dentist for definitive diagnosis and treatment.

Bad breath can occur due to many reasons, like deposits on tooth, less saliva, taking certain food or medications, indigestion etc. Need to know full history before diagnosing anything.
Brush with any toothpaste twice a day, brushing before sleeping is essential to maintain good hygiene.
Warm saline water rinses two to three times a day, use mouth wash.
