No. Although some people on certain kinds of AIDS medication do report bad breath. That's because of the medication.

When was the last time you had a dental check-up? If you have gum (periodontal) disease, there is a greater chance that you will have breathe problems. A good thorough, dental cleaning will help alleviate the problem...

All the best
