Tongue cleansing is an integral part of the Ayurvedic morning routine. The tongue coating that has formed overnight is thoroughly removed after brushing the teeth. This prevents mouth and throat infections and neutralizes odor-causing bacteria. Use: in the morning, after brushing your teeth. Grab the ends of the tongue cleaner and, with your mouth open, use gentle pressure to scrape the tongue from back to front a few times. Then rinse your mouth thoroughly and wash the tongue cleaner under running water.
