Hello,
Thanks for consulting HCM
Read your query, as you have bad smell from mouth in night dont worry I understand your concern this bad breath can be due to poor oral hygiene, deposits like plaque , calculus , material alba causing bad smell , drug induced , sinus related or diet containing milk products , garlic.
For this I will suggest you to consult dentist and go for oral prophylaxis , in meantime you do warm saline rinses in day and do chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily or during night after meal.
Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.
Regards
Dr. Priyanka tiwari

1. Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The bad breath could be because of the deposits over the teeth causing gum infection. Or it can be because of the pus discharge secondary to gum or tooth infection or any respiratory tract infection like sinusitis or gastrointestinal disorders. Consult a oral physician and get yourself examined to rule out these conditions.
if it is gum infection get the teeth cleaned once and maintain oral hygiene after that. You can use mouth wash.
if it is tooth infection get the tooth restored.
If it is respiratory tract infection consult a pulmonologost and gastro enterologist if it is a gastrointestinal disorder.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
