Most bad breath comes from bacteria on the tongue and between teeth, or from gum disease and dry mouth. Certain foods, smoking, and sometimes sinus or digestive issues play a role too.
Brush and floss daily, gently clean your tongue, stay hydrated, and keep up with professional cleanings. Treating any underlying gum disease often makes the biggest difference.
If good habits don’t solve it, the cause may be gum disease or dry mouth that needs treatment. A checkup can pinpoint it.
