Hello,
Thanks for the query. Foul smell in the mouth can be due to various dental and medical problems. You should go for complete oral examination that includes evaluation of gingival(Gums) health and dental health. If every thing is ruled out that is causing foul smell, Then I would suggest you to go for medical evaluation.
Certain medical condition causes foul smell in the mouth. So my advice for you is to go for proper dental check up and then a medical examination if required.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any more query, feel free to ask. Thank you.

Hi
Welcome to HCM forum
Bad smell is generally due to improper oral hygiene.
It can also be the signs of an infection of the stomach or intestines.
Improper eating patterns such as eating heavy meals that are high in protein and sugar .
you could stay away from Sweet potatoes, Garlic, Onions, Tomatoes, protein, peas, beans.
Take plenty of water, herbal drinks,high fiber diet.
The best remedy to get rid of such bad smell is to drink glass of warm water with honey and lemon first thing every morning.
