Copper to keep your tongue clean...what a great idea! (Update)
I've never used tongue cleaners before. In fact, I can't recall any dentist ever telling me to use one. I have brushed my tongue, but apparently according to what I've read, that's not very beneficial. Not long ago, I received an email featuring copper tongue cleaners and how beneficial they are to clean the tongue, help keep the teeth from extra tartar build-up and even help prevent infections or, if you already have infection to help it heal quicker. I haven't experienced those things yet to know how much this will help, but I felt it was worth a try. The article stated to use the tongue scraper prior to brushing the teeth and to scrape the tongue a number of times. These scrapers are also supposed to help bad breath and even improve the taste buds! A few years ago, I read about hospitals replacing faucets (and areas often touched) with copper in patient's rooms and found how well it cut down on germs. This all made sense and gave me further reason to consider the copper tongue cleaner, so I decided I'd buy one to try. Well, who wants to pay $7.00 or more for one pure copper tongue cleaner when you can buy twelve pure copper tongue cleaners for around $11.00? So I bought the package of twelve, a no-brainer! Now that I've been using it and notice how much cleaner my mouth feels, I wonder why I've gone so long without trying one! It's easy to use, doesn't hurt, doesn't gag, easy to clean when finished, and if it helps prevent infections then all the better! I'm rather interested to find out if using it twice a day will perhaps help allergies to not be as bad by keeping one's tongue clean! UPDATE: These were such a great buy. I was amazed at how long it took for my tongue to actually feel clean and now used regularly it stays clean, mouth stays fresher and it is well over a year since buying these. I use it every day and it is a great tool and works fantastic. I highly recommend them! Read more
