Bad breath mostly comes from the oral sources like cavities or gum disease, poor dental hygiene, cracked fillings, tonsils, dentures, chewing tobacco, smoking etc.  Medicines which cause dry mouth can be the cause behind dry mouth. Several diseases can also cause bad breath.

Hi,Thanks for nice sharing.I would like to emphasis some important point on this topic. Maintaining good oral health is essential to reducing bad breath, so be sure you schedule regular dental visits for a dental cleaning and checkup. Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste to remove food debris and plaque, and brush your tongue, too. Once a day, use floss or an interdentally cleaner to clean between teeth.
