How can I tell her without her getting really, really mad at me?

fart in her face in the 69 position and when she complains jump up, point at her and shout, "NOW YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL!"
I would say something like "Hey hon, I really think you should know something, and I hope it doesn't offend you..."

But seriously, if you can't talk to her about this, then your continued relationship will be awkward and you'll hit other major communication blocks along the way. Say to her that if the roles were reversed, you'd want to know if your breath was bad too. You have to be honest.
I think that's the best approach. I once told my best friend directly ("your breath stinks"). He then punched me a few (not very hard though) and he then refused to remain friends. Best friend to no friend just because of 3 words.
"your breath stinks" was hardly a sensitive delivery, dude.
Maybe try it like this, "babe, you know I'd want you to tell me, when my breath stinks." - "of course." - "Ok, because your breath stinks. I really do not want to know what crawled inside there and died, but maybe I can offer you a peppermint?"
I am sure you can find better words for it.
My FWB will sometimes say 'your stinky' and I laugh and go sort it out. Some times I say to him 'did you bursh your teeth today?' and he will be like 'no' and I laugh and say 'didnt think so. Go sort it out'
Its all good ^^

Offer her to make an appointment with her dentist. :d
Hon, don't you think we(you) should see the dentist?
