Forgetting The Tongue

Don’t Forget to Clean Your Tongue! 👅🦷

Did you know that your tongue harbors bacteria just like your teeth and gums? Yet, it’s often overlooked in oral hygiene routines!

❌ What Happens If You Skip Tongue Cleaning?

🚫 Bad breath (Halitosis) – Bacteria and food particles accumulate on the tongue, leading to unpleasant odors.
🚫 Bacterial buildup – Can contribute to cavities, gum disease, and even affect taste perception.
🚫 Coated tongue – A white or yellowish layer on the tongue can indicate bacteria and debris buildup.

✅ How to Clean Your Tongue Properly

✔️ Use a toothbrush – Gently brush your tongue after brushing your teeth.
✔️ Try a tongue scraper – A dedicated tool that effectively removes bacteria and buildup.
✔️ Rinse with mouthwash – Helps eliminate bacteria and freshen breath.

Make tongue cleaning a daily habit for a healthier mouth and fresher breath! 😁👅
