Do you brush your tongue?

[iGary]

Well?

 

[rdowns]

Absolutely, that's where most of the germs in your mouth are hiding.

 

[UKnjb]

Nope. I have done some years ago, to get rid of a weird fungal infection, but not since. Should I?

Um - who's the girl with the lovely long and very clean tongue?

 

[Chundles]

Sometimes, not all the time. Definitely if I've had something with more than a delicate hint of garlic. Like tonight. Ohh that kebab after work was a bad but tasty and filling idea.

 

[CompUser]

Yea, I brush my tongue. A lot of the time that can be the cause of bad breath.

 

[PlaceofDis]

i do not. i use Listerine though.

 

[iGary]

I do occasionally, but not often.

 

[eva01]

yep i do, a lot

i am OCD about cleaning my teeth T_T

whitest teeth ever

 

[skunk]

I comb my teeth with a fine tooth comb.

 

[count chocula]

not often

 

[ibook30]

I brush my tongue every time I brush my teeth. Like others have said - germs on the tongue can cause bad breath. That was all I had to hear to make me a life long Tongue Brusher.

 

[EGT]

I use one of those tongue scraper things after brushing my teeth.

Brush teeth, use tongue scraper thing, rinse out with mouthwash.

Clean clean clean!

 

[daze]

Absolutely. I brush my tongue everytime I brush. I should use Listerine more often than I do now...

 

[kretzy]

Occasionally. Sometimes I just get the urge. You can actually get toothbrushes with tongue cleaning bits on the back of the head. I might buy one when I need a new toothbrush.

 

[jsw]

I do, maybe every other day or so. I like the idea, but I'm often too lazy to follow through with it.

 

[Koodauw]

I dont know how you could go without. Some people might get more build up on their tongues than others. Brushing my teeth/tongue is usually the first thing I do when I get up in the morning.

 

[aquajet]

I comb my teeth with a fine tooth comb.

Is your tongue against your cheek when you do this?

 

[joepunk]

Everyday I brush my tongue.

 

[FocusAndEarnIt]

Yeah, I brush my tongue, it was just what I was taught to do...

 

[w_parietti22]

 

[Applespider]

Yup... teeth and tongue morning and night and before a hot date

 

[velocityg4]

Yes,

I brush my tongue every time I brush my teeth. I also brush my teeth for 5 minutes using light circular strokes, floss the way the dentist showed me and rinse with listerine.

I finally went to the dentist for a cleaning after 5 years and my plaque build up was less than their average patient after 6 months. Being anal retentive about oral hygene is beneficial.

 

[macEfan]

I brush my teeth in the morning and evening.. I brush my toung in the morning, after I get up..

 

[katie ta achoo]

Yup!! I damn nearly threw up on my arm today, though.. Yuck.

 

[Oblivious]

Yep, well, once every couple of days. I would like to do it more often, but I'm usually too lazy to do so.
