So how do you use your new tongue scraper? It's easy and something that can easily be incorporated into your daily wellness rituals.

  1. Brush your teeth and start with a clean mouth.

  2. Stand in front of a mirror and open your mouth wide. Stick out your tongue as far as you comfortably can.

  3. Place the rounded end of the copper tongue scraper at the back of your tongue, as far back as you can without gagging. Use a gentle pressure to scrape your tongue and move the scraper forward.

  4. Repeat this scraping motion several times, each time moving the scraper a little farther forward on your tongue. Be sure to scrape the entire surface of your tongue, including the sides and the top.

  5. Rinse the scraper with warm water after each pass to remove any debris or bacteria.

  6. When you're finished scraping, rinse your mouth with warm water to remove any loosened debris and bacteria.

  7. Clean your tongue scraper thoroughly with warm water and a mild soap. Dry it off and store it in a clean, dry place. Copper is naturally anti-bacterial so I just rinse and hang to dry.

 

BENEFITS OF REGULAR TONGUE SCRAPING - 

 

  1. Removes bacteria and toxins: The clean edge surface of a copper tongue scraper can effectively remove bacteria, food particles, and other toxins that can accumulate on the surface of your tongue. This can help improve your overall oral health and reduce bad breath.

  2. Enhances taste sensation: A clean tongue allows you to fully taste and enjoy your food by removing the coating of bacteria and debris that can dull your taste buds.

  3. Improves digestion: By removing the buildup on your tongue, a tongue scraper can help promote better digestion by stimulating the secretion of digestive enzymes.

  4. Promotes overall oral hygiene: Regular use of a tongue scraper can help prevent cavities and gum disease by reducing the amount of bacteria and toxins in your mouth.

  5. Reduces the risk of respiratory infections: By removing bacteria and toxins from your mouth, a tongue scraper may also help reduce the risk of respiratory infections, such as pneumonia and bronchitis.

  6. Enhances immune system function: By reducing the overall bacterial load in your mouth, a tongue scraper can help improve your immune system function, since the mouth is a gateway for many pathogens that can enter the body.
