Good oral hygiene: Make sure before you go to bed that you brush and floss well which will help, however, it may be difficult to totally get rid of bad breath in the morning.

Morning Breath: Hydrate before you go to sleep. Brush and floss properly and use a tongue blade daily before you go to sleep and first thing in the morning.
