Hello,
Bad breath is usually caused due to poor oral hygiene maintenance.
I would suggest you to visit a dentist and get a thorough cleaning done.
Use chlorhexidine mouthrinses to gargle.
Use soft bristled toothbrush and dental floss and clean your teeth involving all aspects of teeth.
Maintain oral hygiene well.
Rinse your mouth after every meals.
Hope this helps.
