It may, in the long run, but only if the salt water will kill the offending bacteria. It is common for dentists to recommend this after a tooth extraction or dental surgery. This helps to prevent infections. Generally bad breath would be due to different conditions. Use a good cleansing mouthwash instead and speak to your dentist as you may have a bigger problem.

Clean your tongue as well as brush your teeth also floss and avoid strong smelling foods before a date, a little time chewing gum is good too.

if the bad breath is due to gum diseases or because of sore throat then the warm saline gargles and rinses really help. fr more information on bad breath you can visit the following link
further they have the facility for free dental consultation by the dentist.

Salt is a natural sterilizer and can prevent or kill an infection. You can add 1/4 tsp of salt to 2 oz of water and a couple drops of mint oil to make your own mouthwash. The salt kills many of the causes of bad breath, but doesn’t actually make your breath smell fresh (hence the mint).

Yes it helps. Gargle a cup of lukewarm water mixed with salt or half a lemon juice.This is best done before going to bed. More useful remedies at
