ORGANIC Beauty Supply - Tongue scraper - Copper

Bad breath is often caused by a lack of brushing/cleaning the tongue. The surface of the tongue can have many furrows where food residues and bacteria settle.

It is completely normal to have bacteria in the mouth, but it can form a bad smell if food residues and bacteria are allowed to accumulate and sit for too long.

If the tongue has a whitish coating, it is because the bacterial colonies have been allowed to grow too large. Thorough and regular cleaning of the tongue keeps the bacteria under control.

Failure to clean the tongue can mean that it is easier to get fungus and other infections on the tongue.

A tongue scraper helps you to have better oral hygiene and removes plaque on the tongue. The U-shaped design makes it easy to scrape all sides of the tongue and with this copper tongue scraper integrated into the shaft, you only have to concentrate on scraping the tongue, it makes it all a little easier.

Application:

• Use morning and evening before brushing your teeth
• Extend the tongue so that you can reach as far back on the tongue as possible, where the greatest concentration of bacteria is Scrape with light pressure from the back to the front 6-7 times
• Be sure to start as far back as possible
• Remember to also scrape the sides of the tongue
• Rinse the tongue scraper under running warm water after each scraping
• Rinse your mouth afterwards with water and spit out
• Clean the tongue scraper under running warm water when you are done
• Over time copper will naturally oxidize, this does not mean that you cannot use it with this oxidation, or you can get it shiny again by polishing it with salt and vinegar on a clean dry cloth

If you have very deep furrows on your tongue, it can be difficult to remove all bacteria with the tongue scraper, so you can also use mouthwash to your advantage.
