If you use a tongue cleaner, floss, eat mints, and mouthwash it should work.  If you are still having bad breath after doing all this, see a dentist.  As weird as it seems, it could be signs of a serious condition.

Bad mouth odor is caused chiefly by the lack of saliva production while we are asleep. Salivary proteins, residual food particles, and mouth flora and their byproducts are not flushed down our throats by the continuaous production of saliva that occurs during waking hours. Brush your teeth soon afte you wake up. also gently brush your tongue too. (muc of the odor can come form secretions on the tongue. (the pharmacy has tongue cleaners). Also brush after every meal. Drink a glass of water before going to bed. That should help. Regular dental checkups and teeth and gum cleaning also helps.\nSome people do all the above and still have bas breath. It is rare but is a real problem for them. They need help from medical specialists that know about the condition and treat that problem.\nIt is a 24 hour a day problem. You do not describe the symptoms of  it.\nDoc. Dan.

If you've just been to ordinary doctors, maybe it's time to see an Ear/Nose/Throat specialist who should be an expert in mouth/tongue problems. It doesn't sound good, I would get another medical opinion for sure.

your mouth is the ideal breeding ground for bacteria! It is warm and moist, which seems to help the growth of those nasty-smelling bacteria. That is the main cause of hallitosis, or bad breath. Other factors include lodged food particles, or maybe some tooth decay that hasn't been found yet.

A lot of stuff can cause that, some are already answered above. There is also the possibility that you are a very clean kept person. OK, there are normal flora in all of our mouths. These are tiny microorganisms that call it home. But they have a purpose, these normal flora help fight against bad microorganisms that try to move in. Now a lot of these strong mouth washes and teeth whiteners are overused and result in killing the good flora. This allows the bad flora to multiply quickly and result in a white film on the lips, tongue, gums, and checks. You should be able to prevent this by using a milder mouth wash or just following the label instructions to the "t".

1.  Food (obvious: onions, garlic, cool ranch doritos...)\n2.  Sulfide compounds, a bacterial break down product.  Best removed via a tongue scraper.\n3.  Sometimes, dehydration.  Drink more water.\n4.  If none of these work, see an ENT (ear nose and throat) doctor.  Often the bad breath does not start in the mouth but in the throat or nasal passages.

Exact meaning? Anyway, everyone can have bad breath. I've not heard of one person who's had a fresh mouth 24-7, and if you find 'em, lemme know.

Besides brushing your teeth and flossing, make sure when you brush, to also brush your tongue. As far back as you can without gagging. It really does work to do this after meals. I also chew gum, and use those little breath strips and sprays. I have pretty bad breath and I am a smoker. This stuff helps, try getting your teeth cleaned, it doesn't cost to much and it is cheaper than fixing a cavity. Hope this helps.

No, but I have had people try to give me the "breath of death".  Perhaps more people should brush regularly and use some mouthwash.

If I were you I'd go to see my doctor first regarding your gastrointestinal problem and get this problem straightened out asap. A little known fact; bad breath can be a sign that something inside you is wrong. This happened to me once when I had a gall bladder infection.I had very bad breath, cleared up after the operation.
