Medically termed as halitosis, Bad breath is the odor originating from the mouth which may be caused as an implication of poor dental hygiene or as a symptom of an underlying serious disease. Though people think of bad breath as a result of careless attitude towards lifestyle, the problem can be far more serious than the assumption.
