Reddit reviews DrTung's Tongue Cleaner, Stainless Steel Tongue Scraper (colors may vary)

or your tongue. tongue cleaner baby.

Highly recommend Dr Tungs Tongue Cleaner

Dear lord it's disgusting how much stuff comes off my tongue. And if you smell the stuff you just scraped, you will know forever that you never want that stuff in your mouth. Same with smelling your floss after using it.

Tongue scraper. I tried several before landing on this one. It's stainless steel, it'll last virtually forever.

First couple of times you use it will gross you out realizing how much bacteria you had growing on your tongue.

Then, I always rinse with Smart Mouth mouthwash after flossing, tongue scraping and brushing. You can buy it anywhere, grocery store, WalMart, Target, etc. This is the best mouthwash I've found, I never have morning breath since I started using it. I wish it still came in two bottles that you mix, because their new "all-in-one" bottle sucks. But it is what it is.

FTFY

One result of my poor hygiene was a really persistent case of bad breath. All through grammar school, all through high school and college, even when I was brushing twice a day the problem remained.

It made it tough to be around me. Brave (or pissed) people would tell me about it, but I had no idea what to do. Mouth washes didn’t work. Brushing longer didn’t work.

The solution? Simple… a tongue scraper. Twice a day, ten strokes after brushing. The first time you do this, try not to look :-).

My life would have been so different if I had known this.

If you haven't already, please go see an ENT for an evaluation of the abnormal size and shape of your palatine tonsil. There could be something serious going on here. Is the other one like that too? Go ahead and buy a tongue scraper, it may not be the main cause of your halitosis, but it is surely a contributing factor. I recommend this one:

I use this one. The same company also sells this gel you can use with the scraper,

Don't brush it, all your doing is moving gunk around but not out. Instead use a Tongue Scraper or something similar to this. Awesome product and you will see all the crap it removes.

most of the bad breath smell actually comes from the tongue! do you ever notice a white/grey film on the back of his tongue? I would recommend getting a tongue scraper and recommending both of you try it at the same time (it can have a kind of unpleasant gag reflex when you first try it) so maybe having both of you do it together won't make it seem like its just his problem. I have noticed a huge difference in my breath because I was self conscious of it. You can do a test by licking a spoon and smelling the spoon, if its bad your tongue probably needs some TLC. I recommend this one http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Tungs-Tongue-Cleaner-Stainless/dp/B00064JGBO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1454031984&sr=8-3&keywords=tongue+scraper

My dentist gives me a fantastic tongue scraper that looks kind of like this. I love it:

Dr. Tung's is the best one.

Assuming you don't have a medical issue (you probably don't), do these two simple things along with the obvious brushing:

1. Use a waterpik daily on your gum line and between your teeth. I like to pour in a capful of mouthwash with the water. 1 or 2 tanks of water per session. A classic waterpik is about $40.
   
   
2. Use a tongue scraper daily. After you do this once and see the filth that gets scraped off you will wonder why everyone doesn't do this. Get one of the metal ones with rubberized handles. (E.g. Dr. Tung). They're about $6. http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Tungs-Products-Stainless-Cleaner/dp/B00064JGBO
   
   It will take about a week or two before things really start to get better, but when they do they will be dramatically better.

I would scrape it with a metal tongue scraper. This one is really popular: https://www.amazon.ca/Dr-Tungs-Tongue-Cleaner-Stainless/dp/B00064JGBO

I used to use the regular ones like Oral-B, but this one really worked. I had oral surgery and couldn't brush for the first bit, then wasn't allowed to brush the teeth the surgery was on, couldn't floss, only ate soft foods and tldr, it was dank -- I grew 'hair' on my tongue! Anyway, this helped.

Part of it also is diet -- lots of water, but also fresh foods (like raw fruits and veggies) helps.

Maybe we're not talking about the same one haha I bought this one.

6 week faster here. The hunger I don't know what to tell you. I would get a little hunger when around food. I still have to cook and prepare food for my wife and kid. I already scrape my tongue as part of my dental hygiene. There was definetly more need while I fasted due to the tongue buildup.

Haha, I feel you. Super smelling morning breath has got to be the worst! The super smell is not a superpower I wanted either. I can smell my husband's sweaty gym clothes in the next room over.

For your husband, maybe he can try using a tongue scraper? It has really helped with my bad breath (and I can taste things better too!) I have this one.

noone ever knows how much shit is on their tongue, and youre right, dentists dont know either. if you are using a plastic one, think again. 7$ will change your life https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Tungs-Tongue-Cleaner-Stainless/dp/B00064JGBO?th=1

get a metal one.

Use a tongue cleaner/scraper. Leaves you feeling a lot cleaner too.

im gagging just reading about this. i'll stick with my tongue cleaner.

Get one of these and use it when you're high. It's amazing.

This is what I got and still use. Had it almost two years now. I occasionally nick my tongue, which I actually just did a few minutes ago, but the tongue heals crazy fast but it's worth getting a very clean tongue and in turn fresh breath.

get a tongue scraper, this one for example. pretty cheap and it really helps kill the bad breath

I use this tongue scraper daily(it was the ONLY ONE that worked. Oral B, Orabrush, backside of toothbrushes - all didnt work) and still after 4 or 5 scrapes there is visible white residue. Do you have any idea why nothing works for me except that hunk of metal?

I don't think I have Closys Mouthwash in my country. Could you tell me what makes it good so I could look for those ingredients in the mouthwashes available in my country?

if you're brushing and flossing and still have awful morning breath, I'd recommend a tongue scraper..

You need a tongue scraper.

It changed my life.

Best tongue scraper I've ever used and it is a BIFL product for sure.

Therabreath is great! But only works if the smell is coming from your mouth. What kind of tongue scraper are you using? I find the plastic ones don’t do anything. I like the metal dr Tung’s tongue scraper from amazon. (Link below)

Other possibilities for bad breath 1. post nasal drip from chronic allergies 2. Acid reflux (smells coming from your stomach.

My best guess is still tonsil stones though, even if they’re not visible. They hide in the folds and holes of the tonsils.

And a tongue scraper.

Most bacteria causing bad breath is on your tongue. Particularly the last third of your tongue—even if you brush it. It's hard to reach. Blah, blah sources. Anyway, a tongue scraper can scrape that stuff away.

Amazon dude, the reviews are testament. And I agree.

I will use this to promote the single most impactful thing I did for my attractiveness/hygiene last year:

This thing is FUCKING AMAZING

I know, I know, tongue scrapers. You've heard of this. "Why not just brush your tongue with your toothbrush?" as my sister in law asked.

Trust me.

I brushed my tongue every day, but the first time I used this thing so much white shit came off my tongue I had an existential crisis.

Buy it, use it, love it.

BONUS: read the amazon reviews. They are fucking bonkers.

I used to do the same thing till I got a tongue scraper. Thing is amazing, you can clean to the back of your mouth w/ less gag and works much better.

On the subject of tongue brushing, you can also employ a tongue scraper to remove the offending biofilm. I've been using the same stainless steel one in tandem with a toothbrush for years and it works splendidly.

Buy dental insurance (or a dental plan.) Then get yourself checked out. If your insurance doesn't cover everything you need, ask if you can set up a payment plan.

Either way, start working on your oral hygiene. Just because you go to the dentist once doesn't mean you can get away without brushing your teeth.

For this you should get a tongue scraper, brush 2-3 times a day, and swish your mouth with hydrogen peroxide (you can get a bottle for $1.) Flossing is also a good idea. If you can afford it, a Waterpik takes a lot of the hassle out of that.

I got this one and it works splendidly :D Plus my mouth feels fresher for longer, and just cleaner all around.

Invest in a good tongue scraper. Here's a good, cheap one with positive reviews

Try a tongue scraper in stainless steel.

You would not believe the crap that came off my right after I quit. I use after I brush in the morning- don't know if it is smoking related or not. But it was almost clay-like.. it's lessoned considerably in the past month- but also read these amazon reviews! It will really help your breath!

It works way better than just brushing and mouth wash.

Also- wouldn't hurt to schedule a dentist cleaning..

Edit: grammar , spelling and clarification

Stop brushing your tongue and get a Dr Tung scraper from your local Sprouts Market or other hippy grocer.

I had to give up toothpaste because I would gag/puke when brushing. This thing has seriously made it so much better.

http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Tungs-Products-Stainless-Cleaner/dp/B00064JGBO

What you have is normal. It's a boifilm caused by bacteria on the tongue. It is not thrash or a yeast infection, like others have said. Many people have this even without smoking.

What you want is a tongue scrapper. Use this before brushing your teeth, and make sure you use mouthwash to kill off bacteria before it forms another biofilm. It'll also help your breath and improve your sense of taste.

I suggest this one.

I swear by this. http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Tungs-Tongue-Cleaner-Stainless/dp/B00064JGBO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1452371506&sr=8-3&keywords=tongue+cleaner

its basically a strap of metal that you can scrape the white/colored layer on your tongue. ive always used one since i was a kid, and its great for breath too

Haven't seen any like that before but here is what I use and. It works great.

A tongue scraper might be helpful. I use mine pretty much every day.

en la lengua es en donde se acumula la mayoría de las bacterias que causan mal aliento. Cuanto te tallas con el cepillo nomás las "bailas" en la lengua pero no se retiran por completo, o por lo menos cuesta más trabajo. Supuestamente con el limpiador es más fácil.

Ahorita que estoy viendo, parece que ya los mandan para acá.

Looks similar, but I'd say no. It looks like it scrubs, not scrapes.

Try this

Serious reply here... I got a tongue scraper on a whim a few years back, and it is honestly the best thing ever. I find a combo of floss and scraping more helpful at reducing halitosis than a tooth brush any day (though you should really be doing all three). It's hard to go back after you see the kind of disgusting gunk you can pull off your tongue. The one I got is similar to this. 10/10, no question. 0/10 with rice. Do not eat the scrapings at all. That would be gross.

I use it everyday but haven't seen any results. Sometime my tongue even bleed on some spots. I use this amazon so maybe it's too violent ?
So basically there is no treatment and that won't ever go, but I should try to limit it by scraping my tongue more often ?
(also in your text, it says pale brown to black, isn't it only black hairy tongue ?)
