Hello,
Bad breath causes multiple, first the dental or oral causes it could be due to bad oral hygiene also avoiding of tongue cleaning. Get your teeth professionally cleaned and start maintaining your oral hygiene by doing four things daily at night and in the morning.
1. Proper brushing.
2. Using interdental aids for cleaning in between your teeth areas (Dental floss and proxa brushes (single bristle brush)).
3. Tounge cleaning with a tongue cleaner.
4. Using mouth wash (Initially for two weeks go for Chlorohexidine later you can change to milder one like Listerine)
Visit your dentist regularly for checkup and professional cleaning. If it still persists, then it could be related to gastric problems.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
