Stick out your tongue and say ahh to DrTung’s best-selling Stainless Steel Tongue Cleaner. We brought the ancient practice of tongue scraping to the United States over 30 years ago and mouths have been cleaner ever since. Tongue cleaning remains the best way to remove bad breath bacteria, with modern research showing that a scraper is five times more effective than using a toothbrush to clean your tongue.
How to Use:
- Hold the handles, and position cleaner as far back on the tongue as comfortable.
- Glide the cleaner toward the opening of your mouth, gently lifting unwanted matter. Repeat several times.
- Rinse and dry tongue cleaner.
- Twice a day is usually sufficient. Most people do it upon waking and before going to bed, which helps prevent morning breath. Some people also like to clean their tongue after each meal. It only takes 10 or 15 seconds each time.
Research shows that tongue cleaning can help prevent plaque buildup on the teeth, remove the coating on the tongue and improve our taste perception (because the coating on the tongue dulls the taste receptors). Many people report that they get far less colds and flu. It is good for overall health!
