How to use a tongue scraper?

It's very simple! At home, in front of your mirror, stick out your tongue and scrape the tops with the tongue cleaner. Repeat the movement from the back of your tongue outwards. Scrape gently without forcing your tongue. You will see the white layer on your tongue diminish. Each time you repeat the movement, rinse your tongue scraper so as not to put the bacteria you removed back into your mouth.

You will get visible results after several days, fresher breath and you will rediscover the flavors of your meals.

I recommend that you use the tongue scraper every day (preferably in the morning for bad breath) and after brushing your teeth.

After use, rinse your tongue scraper under boiling water to disinfect it and let it air dry.

It is completely normal if, the first time, using the tongue scraper is unpleasant. Indeed, going to the back of the tongue can cause a gag reflex.

- Hold your tongue scraper in both hands and place the curved part at the back of the tongue.
