Dead cell parts of the oral mucosa and food residues stick particularly easily to the rough surface of the tongue. They form a usually whitish coating in which 60 to 80 percent of all bacteria romp around in the mouth. The bacteria promote bad breath and the development of tooth decay and periodontal disease. In Ayurveda, the tongue cleaner has been used to remove this evidence for many thousands of years. Anyone who also regularly cleans their tongue improves the sensitivity of their taste buds and strengthens their sense of taste. traits Material: copper Length of the legs: 12 cm application Clean your tongue with light pressure in the morning and evening before brushing your teeth and then clean the tongue cleaner under running water.
