#tongue #Mouthwash #BadBraeth #AskTheDentist

In this episode of ASK THE DENTIST, our dentist answers the most frequently asked questions on tongue brushing like:

Can brushing your tongue help in the fight against bad breath?
How to brush your teeth without throwing up ?
How often we should brush the tongue ?

Cleaning your tongue usually makes bad breath go away, but if it’s still a problem, you may want to consult with a dentist or your doctor. Your problem could be more serious. Bad breath can be caused by tooth decay; infections in your mouth, nose, sinuses, or throat; medications; and even cancer or diabetes.

Tongue brushing is an easy addition to your daily dental routine. Experts recommend making it a regular habit.

This a cool video. Have you tried the stilobrush for your tongue?? Its probably the best one I've ever used. Way better than tongue scrapers.
