Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through you query and can understand your concern..

As per your complain in case if you are concerned about bad breath and gingivitis you should consult an Oral Physician or a Periodontist [Gum disease specialist] to get evaluated and treatment can be planned according to the cause..
In case of gum infection Scaling followed by topical application of gum paint can help..
For hormonal problems you need to consult an Endocrinologist and get a hormonal profile done and treatment can be proceeded accordingly..
As your first concern seems to be bad breath and gum problem better consult an Oral Physician and get her evaluated..
As of now she can gargle with an antimicrobial mouthwash for masking bad breath..
Chewing sugarfree chewing gum also helps..
Do warm saline gargles..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
