There are several potential causes for bad breath, and some of them are not related to the mouth. Nevertheless, the most common one is probably gum disease. You should seek a dental examination to diagnose the state of your teeth and gums and receive appropriate treatment. This is a sensible course of action in any case. If despite having or achieving a healthy state in your mouth you still experience bad breath you should seek the opinion of your GP to explore other sources.
