THE SYMPTOMS
Dry Mouth
Sour taste in the back of the throat
Foul smell even after brushing and flossing
Bad odour after eating, drinking or smoking
THE CAUSES
This list is not exhaustive. There may be other reasons for bad breath including Diseases, such as some cancers, and conditions such as metabolic disorders that can cause a distinctive breath odour as a result of chemicals they produce. Chronic reflux of stomach acids (gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD) can be associated with bad breath. Bad breath in young children can be caused by a foreign body, such as a piece of food, lodged in a nostril.
POOR DENTAL HYGIENE
Improper dental hygiene results in plaque (a thin film of bacteria) forming over teeth. Unclean dentures trap food particles, harbouring harmful bacteria.
TOBACCO PRODUCTS
Smoking and other tobacco products result in gum disease, which is another source of bad breath.
FOOD
Certain foods like onion, garlic, spices, etc. can cause bad breath as they enter the lungs through the bloodstream, after digestion.
MEDICATION
Few medicines contain chemicals that breakdown in the body and produce elements that may cause bad breath.
ORAL INFECTIONS
Bad breath can be caused by surgical wounds after oral surgery such as tooth removal, or as a result of tooth decay, gum disease or mouth sores.

Bad breath may be a symptom of other dental diseases like gingivitis (an inflammation of gums), periodontitis, trench mouth etc.
