DrTung's Stainless Steel Tongue Scraper - Adults & Kids - 2 Pack

Works well. Better than using the toothbrush. Easy to use and rinse off. I wish I could have picked the color I wanted. I would get it again.

I have been using this for two years and it works really well. Highly recommend! It does not cause me to gag like brushing my tongue with a brush did and it clearly removes buildup from my tongue. I usually do a few passes. There is a small learning curve to get the pressure and position of your tongue ideal. Give it a week and you will be a pro. I came back to write a review because I feel like so many reviews are after owning a product for a day and people say they love it, but does it become a staple or fall by the wayside? This is something I use consistently, it works well, and it hasn’t showed any signs of wear.

Tongue scraping? In a hectic life of running to get the basics accomplished, one more chore seemed like some new age excess. Until more out of curiosity, I sent for this tool to give it a try. I recall during childhood, when doctor visits and checkups lasted more than 3 minutes, the first thing a doctor did after perhaps weighing you and someone taking your blood pressure, was to have you open your mouth and say AHHH. Besides looking for inflammation in your throats, they observed the condition of your tongue, which gave evidence to your overall health since it's the gateway to your GI track. Being the first step in the journey of your digestion, all food begins being processed here and your mouth has more bacteria than the entire human population on the planet. Most of them are necessary and beneficial. But imbalances can occur or due to superficial oral care, food particles can promote excess populations of some types of bacteria. Bacteria eat and excrete as well and their waste products can result in unpleasant odors and even build up of toxins. A tongue scraper removes these accumulations very effectively, much more so than your redirected toothbrush will. At times I noticed a white coating on my tongue as opposed to a healthy pink. Regular tongue scraping has completely eliminated that condition. Besides having more peace of mind that my breath is more clean in social situations, my mouth has never felt cleaner. I love this scraper in particular because of the substantial handles which enable you to hold it securely during use without slipping. Perhaps it's like using those dental floss tools as opposed to unraveling two feet of floss, winding it around your fingers cutting off blood supply and then inserting fingers, with their own unique bacteria into your mouth. (Yes, I hate producing more plastic waste as well with those disposable tools! A non issue with this reusable stainless steel scraper) One other benefit that I'm not sure I've consciously observes, is that without your taste buds being coated, you might even experience more intense flavors in foods. Its not shown in the photo, but the scraper includes a small storage pouch for storage and to take along. One other curious but true benefit, is that using it makes you more conscious of your health maintenance and hygiene and strangely gives you a feeling of self mastery, strange as that may sound. Overall, I can't recommend this scraper highly enough.

They work great, but no guarantee they won’t be the same color. Wanted 2 different ones to keep each person’s separate.

A dentist I follow on social media recommended this tongue scraper. Throughout my life, no one has ever told me about a tongue scraper. I was thought to brush my tongue after brushing my teeth. I didn’t know that brushing the tongue actually does not remove dirt and bacteria. My tongue has been white for a long time instead of pink. I started using this tongue scraper less than a month ago and my tongue has become more pink. I see that it removes a lot of gunk from my tongue and helps keep my breath fresh. It is light weight, easy to use, easy to clean, and it is of good quality. It is a compact size and good for an adult mouth. It should also be good for older kids. It comes with a cloth storage bag so it can stay clean and it allows air flow so it shouldn’t get moldy, especially if you keep it dry and store it in a cool, dry place.This is a great value for the money.

I have 4 cleaners. Every cleaner I've purchased after my first was purchased because I found a better one. The first three were plastic and this is my first stainless steel one. The only thing about having a tongue cleaner and having a pink tongue is that you suddenly realize whenever someone else has a white-coated tongue. And the whole time their talking, you just wanna wipe out your tongue cleaner and take care of it for them. They would get to keep it, of course. Everyone walks away happy. lol. Aaaaaanywhooooo, here's the pro's and con's I found between this new one and the old plastic one's I have. Pros: 1. The fact that the stainless steel on this one is thin and flexible means you can grab it with one hand (like the others) and squeeze the handles until the curve fits the width of your tongue, allowing you to scrape down and getting almost everything off in one swipe (the very sides of your tongue will still contain saliva and therefore the other stuff you didn't want there (I'll keep it vague to prevent any "ewww" reactions, hopefully). This way you still have to make two extra swipes to get it off. One on the left and the other on the right. 2. The same product feature listed above allows two hands to be used, which allows for better control, which also allows for almost all the saliva to be collected in one swipe down. Takes a little practice, but after the 10th tongue cleaning, I had it down-pact. 3. The stainless steel is straight and flat. Most other have angles that allow calcium, etc. to collect within the angles, making for a gross 3 minutes when you have to get a Q-tip and remove the gunk from there. 4. The stainless steel is more hygienic than plastic ones. 5. The current price (as of 01/24/12). So long as the shipping stays free, this will remain an excellent buy. Cons: 1. Takes up more space than the other plastic ones which are straight, allowing it to be packed easily with other items that are straight as well (speaking of the plastic ones, right now). 2. The stainless steel is a bit too thin. This allows it to be bent a little out of its shape, if you're not too careful with it. I can imagine someone trying to bend it and fix the shape to the way it was before, only to have it bent even worse. So long as you don't get crazy trying to get it exactly into the perfect shape for the width of your tongue, it should be fine. After I saw how easily it bent, I quickly gave up trying to make the width absolutely perfect for my tongue. I didn't feel these cons warranted me reducing the rating, since the strength of any one pro over-weighed both the cons for me. An additional consideration: It is a thin and flat piece of stainless steel. If you go overboard like I do (working on it) with trying to get your tongue pink completely pink, you may end up making the circumvallate papillae bleed (had to google this one). It's the arrow shaped row of big bumps near the back of your tongue. With the plastic ones, this barely happened. I found out it was unnecessary to scrape as hard, as only 1/2 the pressure I used with the plastic ones did the job of taking whatever was on my tongue off. Great product. Highly recommended.

I’ve been using DrTung’s Stainless Tongue Scraper for a few weeks now, and I’m blown away by the results! This tool has made a noticeable difference in my oral hygiene routine. It’s easy to use, and the stainless steel design feels durable and high quality. The comfort grip handle makes it simple to maneuver, and it removes buildup from my tongue effortlessly, leaving my mouth feeling much fresher. I also love that it comes with a fabric travel pouch, so I can take it with me on trips without worrying about hygiene. This has quickly become an essential part of my routine, and I’ve noticed an improvement in my breath as well. If you’re looking for a simple but highly effective way to boost your oral hygiene, I can’t recommend this tongue scraper enough!

I love the product, this is my 3rd purchase of Dr. Tung’s scrapers. However, this review isn’t a complaint about the product, but the product packaging. Did you make it any harder to open and get into? I’m a 52-year-old guy, I don’t have arthritis. I don’t have issues with dexterity and yet this was the toughest hardest package. I’ve opened in a long time. The perforated backside bottom where you’re supposed to open the product doesn’t work. All of the adhesive that are used around the packaging seal everything in, which is great, I guess, but when you’re trying to open this stuff up, it took a pair of scissors to pry open the boxes to get at the actual product. This is something that should be fixed. Perhaps you should take a playbook out of the packaging for the Dr. Tung’s smart floss. Zero issues getting into that package.

Great tounge cleanser, I previously had a plastic based one I bought from the local pharmacy, but this one is so much better! A+! Recommend

Produit très efficace et complémentaire de la brosse à dents et de l'hygiène buccale.

perfect, easy to use, it doesn't hurt and rather comfortable to wear. I will buy more for my family

I actually bought this for my son as I already have one! The best tongue cleaner around really! Cleans your tongue really well, no problems and easy to rinse clean. Great quality and good value for money. I have had mine years.

Es ist natürlich ein kleines, einfaches Produkt, bei dem man nicht viel falsch machen dürfte. Der Zungenreiniger tut jedenfalls, was er soll. Zu Beginn hat's bei mir aufgrund von zu starkem Drücken etwas geblutet, aber das hat nichts mit dem Produkt zu tun. Die Tasche, die mitgeliefert wird, ist natürlich fürs Verreisen sehr praktisch und wird auch genutzt. Aussehen tut sie etwas feminin; leider habe ich auch den das violette Modell des Reinigers bekommen, aber ich werde mich mal nicht anstellen...
