How do I clean my tongue?!
Question: How do I clean my tongue?
P.S. My Routine is scraping my tongue for about ten minutes, then I put a dab of toothpaste on my tongue and spread it around, finally I then brush my teeth for about 2 minutes. I floss don't worry that is not the problem, the problem is that it is my tongue.
Answers:
While it is great that you are taking care of not just your teeth but also you tongue, I would suggest you see a doctor. There are many things that may be causing a white tongue, and the first I am thinking about is called "thrush". This is a yeast infection (or fungus) that grows and can be scraped away but that will show red marks, or lesions. A doctor will diagnose you. I really do think you are on the right track in trying to track down your bad breath...it could be so many things.
