Increase oral hygien: Try to eat less dairy products and be sure to continue or start regular dental maintenance visits. Dailey oral hygiene, including flossing and brushing is important. Also use a tongue scraper which can be purchased at the drug store.

Be alert ! : Bad breath can be multi factorial. Specific odor like rotten egg can be due to post nasal drainage of sinuses.. Or due to your stomach bacteial spectrum. It rarely has that type of odor, when plaque and tartar build ups or cavities are the cause of bad breath. Tongue surface is another source of halitosis. (bad breath).
