Answers:
go to your local pharmacy or dentist you get get a tounge scrapper made specifiaccly for cleaning bacteria from the toungeWww@Answer-Health@Com

I used to have this problem frequently!. Using warm water when using your toothbrush or tounge brush helps!. Colder water will give you the urge to gag more believe it or not!. They also make toothbrushes with a special built in tounge brush on them (usually made by *Reach) or you can buy them individually as a tounge brush on their own!. They are designed specifically to cut down on the horrible "gag factor" and breathing through your nose will also make life easier for you rather than breathing through your mouth!.

Good luck! And happy tounge brushing!

Use a proper tongue scraper!. Don't ever use a toothbrush to clean your tongue (unless it's one of those with a proper tongue scraper on the back)!.
The bristles can pierce the tongue causing it to swell and you can block your airway!. I have talked with two dentists who warned about this!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Exhale while you brush!. If you do throw up you need to stop!. But you can always get a tongue scrapper, or flossing your tongue!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There are these little things (not sure what they're called) but you slip them on your finger andjust brush where you need to you also may not want to put the brush so far back Hope it HelpsWww@Answer-Health@Com

Try brushing side to side instead of forward and back!. You can also use a tongue scraper!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Buy the floss that already has those bumps on it, so you can brush your tongue!. I use them all of the time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Use a spoon and scrape it clean!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
