If dry mouth and bad breath upon waking in the morning are caused by a dry environment or insufficient water intake, you should first improve the environment by using a humidifier and drink more water to replenish bodily fluids. If the issue results from poor oral hygiene, rinse your mouth or brush your teeth promptly after meals to prevent food residue from remaining in the mouth and undergoing bacterial fermentation and decomposition.
