Perhaps but: There are other possible causes as well. See a dentist to get all your dental treatment completed and also discuss this issue at that time.

Periodontitis...: ... Is also a possibility. Your diet and acid reflux are also contributing factors. Please see a local dentist for an examination and consultation.

Bad breath: In the majority of cases, the cause of bad breath or halitosis, is the product of bacteria in the mouth due to caries and gum disease. See your dentist for Halimeter test and bad breath treatment that depends on its cause. Good luck.
