tounge scrape it, brush it, and lysterine you should be good!
Use a tongue scraper and gargle with equal parts warm water with peroxide. I do it every night.
you can clean your tongue?!
you might be just a tad bit obsessive, but no worries. if you brush your tongue though, you should be just fine =)
The tongue does harbor the majority of bacteria in our mouths. Scraping it is very beneficial. HOWEVER, please do not use peroxide. While it does have some beneficial properties, it is too strong and can cause harm to the soft tissues and can be considerd a co-carcinogen. Please also keep in mind that the topography of tongues can vary drastically. Some people have nice smooth pink tongues and some people have bumpier or even cracked-looking or fuzzy-looking tongues. Please don't obsess if yours is one of the latter. Just keep brushing, flossing, scraping and seeing your hygienist at your regularly prescribed intervals.
