Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

As per your complain it seems that the white deposits over the tongue along with bas smell is due to yeast infection in mouth known as Oral Thrush..
It is an opportunistic infection and needs an anti-fungal therapy for complete resolution..
You can give her bifilac as it is a probiotic and helps in retaining good bacteria in mouth and intestine that can fight infection but my suggestion is that you should once take her to a Pedodontist and get evaluated and if reuired he/she can advise her antifungal mouth drops and mouthwash for clearing the infection..
along with bifilac or even in place of it natural probiotics like Yoghurt can be taken frequently for resolution of infection...

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
