Is a white tongue normal?!
Question: Is a white tongue normal!?
Okay my tongue isn't really white, but I've noticed recently that the top of it seems to be slightly white covered!. I'm not sure how long it's been like this, and it's not very noticeable, it more looks very light pink!. I checked around the rest of my mouth and the roof of my mouth right above my tongue seems to be about the same!. It's not in patches though, and doesn't appear anywhere else!. I also tend to get the bad "just woke up" taste in my mouth fairly often!. Is this abnormal!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I often find that my breath is worse when I don't drink enough water!. Drink frequently to flush out your mouth!.
If it is in patches (which apparently it's not), or if it's a thick layer you can scrape off, you should go see your doctor because you could have an infection!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Basically, the "just woke up" bad taste in your mouth is caused by the white "stuff" on your tongue!.
When you brush your teeth, you also have to brush your tongue to get that white "stuff" out!. The white stuff is bacteria -- and that's causing the bad taste and breath!.
Case in point, brush your tongue to get the white stuff out!. Pink tongue = good!.
