Unfortunately, I like many suffer from bad breath and have tried so many things. I read that sometimes it's the germs on your tongue that can cause it, so I went crazy trying to brush my tongue. Of course we all know how that ends -- gagging, watery eyes, and it still looks like that gross film is on your tongue. I finally decided that maybe it was time to get a tongue cleaner and it had to be a stainless steel one because they are easier to clean and sterilize. This product is really easy to use and I can get very far back on my tongue without activating my gag reflex. Also, it doesn't have the feeling like brushing with a toothbrush does. This cleaner just glides across my tongue, taking all the icky germs and bad breath with it. I really like this product and I love that it came with a travel case. But not more than I love my nice new fresh breath and bolster or confidence!
I love this tongue cleaner. It's not made cheap although I expected it to be because it's priced in an average price range. Quality is good. The little storage bag is great. The plastic handles/grips are awesome and this is so easy to use and gets everything in 2-3 swipes. I used to have a plastic scraper that I had to run over my tongue about 9-10 times. I'm extremely happy with this product. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great tongue scrapper that's not flimsy.
This item works amazingly. I was a little skeptical at first, but now I cannot go without it. It really helps with bad breath. Not to mention after using it your mouth feels so much cleaner. I am not sure how I made it this long without it. It is made of very good quality, and the color of it is nice as well. I am so glad I took the chance of purchasing it. It also comes with an adorable travel/storage bag which is a huge plus. I would definitely recommend this item to everyone!
Being a dental assistant your oral hygiene is very important. I never used a tounge scraper I always used my toothbrush to clean my tounge. When I asked my hygienist about bad taste in my mouth in the mornings and bad breath in the mornings she told me to use the tounge scraper. No lye, the first day I used this product I saw and tasted instant results!. I no longer have that bad taste or breath in the morning. This thing is amazing. Now I will say. My oral hygiene is excellent, I brush and floss 2x a day, I get my teeth cleanings every six months and I have no cavities. So in my case I only needed this tounge scraper to help get the bacteria off my tounge that my toothbrush couldn't get. Now If you do not see your dentist regularly and have gum disease or cavities this product will not help much with bad breath. You will need to see your dentist for other methods to help your case. I hope this info was helpful.
I have been an avid Amazon shopper for years. Never once have I (selfishly) written a review for a product. After purchasing this simple tongue scraper, tonight I am ending that streak. Before today, my tongue had (unknowingly) never seen the light of day. That's right. For YEARS, my tongue had been a whiteish-covered organ. It was more white-covered than pink. It looked like it had been born permanently stained with streaks of vanilla ice cream (as long as I can remember). I thought I was just born "different". But deep down, I secretly envied the wet, pink, glistening tongues of others. Over the years and with countless attempts of desperation, I scrubbed and scrubbed my tongue with the fronts and backs of toothbrushes, all to no avail. I resigned myself that I would always be a freak, I would always be the outcast with a white-splotched tongue. Until tonight. I skeptically opened the tongue cleaner and went into the bathroom. Sure, I had read all of the other ecstatic reviews, but I was different. Momma didn't raise a boy with no pink tongue, no sir, and there was no way it would change now. I almost chuckled at the absurdity of even trying this, as I raised the scraper into my mouth. "I've been through this so many times, so many years...", I thought. I opened my mouth and rested the scraper at the back of my tongue, giving myself one last look, almost as if to say "It's ok Stewart, one day others will judge you not by the color of your tongue but by the flavor of your breath." But then I remembered that my breath was probably caused by my tongue, and cried. I shook my head as I looked at myself, giving me lonesome one last sorrowful look, trying to let myself down easy... and started scraping. As I pulled the gentle scraper down across my tongue, I couldn't believe my eyes. "What is that??" I asked myself. It continued piling up on the scraper, I dare not describe its feature. More and more, it continued to pile up... Was not my tongue in its barren and dry state just a moment ago? Wherefore doth this infernal material spring forth from? What manner of sorcery does this device command?! The scraper rolled off my tongue, my eyes following it down the mirror as I lowered it to the sink, washing off what I thought must have been residual dragon saliva, hiding in the nether caves of my taste budduals. I looked back up to the mirror, into the nefarious cave of the mouthlock, the home of the white wildebeast. "What is this.... Are not my eyes deceiving me?? Dothfore I not see a pinkish-red plain that was therefore not there before???!" I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. I HAD FINALLY UNCOVERED WHAT MY SOUL HAS CRIED FOR FOR YEARS -- A PINKISH-RED TONGUE! I was freaking out of my mind. I put the scraper back in and started scraping like a bug-eyed Californian goldminer in 1848, giggling gleefully as I hopped up and down with childish delight. Scrape, scrape, scrape -- the sins of my tongue coming off with each gentle scrape. I probably scraped for almost five minutes. When I finally cleared it all, I stood there in front of the mirror with my big ol' tongue hanging out like Lassie's on a hot summer day. I was laughing and shaking my head, watching that big beautiful pink tongue that had shamed me for so many years laugh and play in his pinkish-red wonderland. Maybe I'm going a bit overboard here. But I just can't get enough -- I have literally been going into the bathroom JUST to unfurl my tongue before the mirror so I can admire it, like rolling out the red carpet to Nirvana, watching it sway back and forth like the pendulum of the divine, with myself still wide-eyed and wondrous of the miracle of Dr Tung. I'm anxious for tomorrow, when I'll surely be over-zealous in showing off my new "look" to others. I even catch myself pondering how I can garner as much exposure time for my new "pride" as possible. I have visions of me jumping up on my coworkers desks and rolling out my best "Gene Simmons". I then imagine my colleagues leaning over to each others' cubicles, whispering their shocked surprise -- "Goodness gracious, have you seen Stewart today? Something's different about him... Something's different, alright, and whatever it is, I LIKE IT." [Short version]: BUY THIS SCRAPER. It will take years off your tongue and add them back upon your life.
I bought this thinking it would help clear the white layer on my tongue. Not only did it make my tongue a nice pink and make my tongue moist again, but I can also taste distinct flavors I never noticed before. For instance, I used to love the brown sugar and cinnamon pop tarts, but I thought the cinnamon part was false advertising. Before, I could never notice the cinnamon. Today, a day after I started using the tongue cleaner, I noticed the cinnamon. I took a bite out of the pop tart, and it was the first time I ever noticed that cinnamon was an actual ingredient. If you are trying to decide if you want this product, go treat yourself to a brown sugar and cinnamon pop tart. If you can definitely taste the cinnamon, you probably don't need this. But if not, I urge you to order this.
It's so disgusting what is on my tongue, so I love that this product helps clean it off. I value oral care, and this is something that is extremely valuable. Using a regular toothbrush doesn't seem to work well, and it induces a gag reflex that I try to avoid as much as possible. This product is also easy to sterilize, to hold, and it comes in a little bag to store/travel so it doesn't get contaminated. I'm very thankful for this product!
This is so gross, but I love it!! I always am concerned about bad breath (especially since as a teacher I'm always up close talking to students all day), and make sure that I brush my teeth after eating, have gum and mints, floss, etc. I heard scraping your tongue is better than brushing it, so I figured I'd give it a try. It comes in a cute travel pouch, and so after brushing my teeth in the morning I gave it a try. It's super easy--you literally just hold the handles and scrape your tongue. It only took a few times to get used to it, and then I was merrily scraping away, grossing myself out with all the crap that was still left in my mouth even after brushing. It's stainless steel, so it's not like you're left with a minty fresh mouth after using it, which is kind of weird--but my mouth definitely felt cleaner, and after drinking coffee that's always a good thing.
I had a life changing experience today. I mean I feel like climbing to the highest hill and shouting it to the world, getting a YouTube channel just to tell people about this experience. I've got a story to tell so if you're interested keep reading. So a few weeks ago I posted a status that I unfortunately got a bottle of corked wine...if anyone has tasted a bottle that has been corked you'll know that it tastes HORRIBLE. Well ever since then I could not get this taste out of my mouth. It effected everything. The way all my food tasted and even how everything smelled. I was just sure I had gotten some weird fungi in month and nose and I would never be the same. So I started thinking of solutions. I bought an electric toothbrush and brushed my tongue at least 3 times a day. I even considered seeing a doctor. It was that bad. One night after eating some chocolate that tasted like mold I had had it! This thing had even RUINED chocolate for me! That was the last straw!!! And then it dawned on me. I had watched a buzzfeed video one sleepless night where various people had went to a dentist to get their tongue scraped. It was disgusting but I thought that's what I have to do. I told Justin my idea he tells me I'm crazy and it doesn't sound like it's covered by our insurance. So I thought surely you can buy a tongue scraper Amazon. You can buy ANYTHING on Amazon. Sure enough I find one and it has AMAZING reviews. So I use the handy dandy "buy with one click" button. No turning back now. It came in today and I thought I'll test this first. So I ate something first, mold taste per usual. I then went to the bathroom and unwrapped my tongue scraper and went to town. The package says 3-4 times. No. I did it until my tongue was completely pink...like a newborn baby's tongue. The stuff that came off my tongue. I did not think this was possible! I won't go into details about that part. Y'all. I go back to the kitchen pick up that same plate of food and it was like an EXPLOSION of flavors in my mouth. I tasted everything and not one bit tasted or smelled like that mold. I'm cured!!! I'm never going to NOT scrape my tongue ever again!!!! Do yourself a favor. Buy. A. Tongue. Scraper. It's the best thing you'll do for your taste buds. GO. THANK ME LATER.
Just to get this out of the way--based on my experience, if your tongue is bleeding, then you either scraped too much or too hard. You want to clean your tongue reasonably well, but not irritate it, so my humble advice from my experience is to strive for efficiency--perhaps no more than five scrapes total every time you use it, and don't repeatedly scrape over a certain area too much. I've used both this metal one as well as a plastic one I've had before. I'm wondering if many people leaving reviews here are trying scrapers for the first time through this product, because although I believe I get better results with metal than with plastic, it's not quite the miracle product for me compared to many others--but I guess those little bumps on my tongue are just fated to be slightly white forever for me. Either way, this is an effective and solidly made tool. Keep in mind, germaphobes, that when you put it down, the scraping surface will be resting directly on your bathroom counter, so it may be smart to rest it against the included bag (in a nice Japanese print!) or in a toothbrush holder.
