Halitosis (bad breath) in children can be due to many causes like dehydration, excess sugar intake, inadequate oral hygiene or some underlining cause.
You can try natural remedies for your daughter listed below, as they have lesser side effects.

  • Maintain appropriate oral hygiene regular brushing and flossing the teeth and cleaning the tongue.


  • Increase the fluid consumption (sugar free fluids) to avoid mouth dryness.
  • Chewing sugar free gums will also promote saliva production and will help in halitosis.
    Consult a dentist for any dental or gum problems, as these can also cause halitosis.
