Tongue Scrapers

Oral hygiene problems such as bad breath and plaque formation are believed to be associated with a build-up of bacteria on the tongue. Tongue scraping is a fast way to remove the particles from the surface of your tongue.

Benefits of tongue cleaning:

  • Improve your sense of taste. Using a tongue scraper twice daily can improve your sense of taste. Your tongue may be able to better distinguish between bitter, sweet, salty, and sour sensations.
  • Improve the appearance of your tongue. Build-up of excess debris can cause your tongue to take on a white, coated appearance. Daily scraping can help remove this coating and prevent it from returning.
  • Improve overall dental health. Removing bacteria is key to preventing cavities, gum disease, and other conditions affecting the mouth.
  • Reduce bad breath. Tongue scraping helps to fight bad breath by removing odour-causing bacteria.

Although a tongue scraper can help to reduce bad breath, it is just as important to practice good dental hygiene overall:
