Hi, there are various reasons of bad breath, like impurities in blood, inefficient digestive system, dry mouth (lack of saliva production), gum disease, cavities, plaque and tartar formation around teeth and gums, kind of diet, improper brushing / cleaning of mouth etc. I would advise you to get a thorough physical and dental examination to rule out the cause of bad breath and to solve it permanently.

1. Get your teeth checked there shan't be any cavity or space between teeth for food lodgement, where food might get lodged decay and produce bad odour. Also check for plaque accumulation or gum pockets (gum are normally tightly attached to teeth but due to faulty brushing, microbial attack, plaque accumulation gums become loose like a pocket) where small food particles accumulate and produce bad breath. If thats the problem, scaling and proper brushing with mouthrinses will help. 2. Refrain from habit of tobacco or alcohol consumption, if any. 3. Check for gastric upset if any. Gastric acidity does also produce bad breath. Increase water intake, manage diet plans and check for medical help if required.
