Dear Lybrate user, bad breath can be due to a decayed tooth, excessive plaque deposits leading to gum infection, reduced salivary secretions or an unclean tongue (90% of the cases). Brush twice daily and pay special attention to cleaning your tongue properly, rinse your mouth after every meal, use a mouthwash twice daily for 15 days. Sugar free gums like orbit help in promoting saliva production and freshen your breath. Mint leaves (pudina) and fennel seeds (saunf) are natural mouth fresheners. Vist your dentist at least twice a year to get a full mouth scaling and polishing/professional cleaning done because plaque deposits and gum infection do not go away by normal brushing.
