What's the truth about tongue scrapers? I heard they are supposed to work really well so should i be using one?
>>
>>76946325
Do you not clean your tongue?

vile, why are incels like this
>>
I read about them before because I have acid reflux but they're supposedly just worthless on top of damaging to your tongue. Unironically just use your toothbrush for the same effect, no downsides and no need to buy additional dogshit.
>>
>>76946330
Post tongue
>>
>>76946328
I do brush it but it still looks nasty after
>>
>>76946330
How do they damage the tongue?
>>
>>76946325
just use your tooth brush and hit the tongue every time.
>>
get some water on your tongue and make circular motions on it with your toothbrush until all the white crud is gone
>>
more pointless temu crap for morons. what about a rectum scraper or an eyeball cleaner
>>
>>76946372
>rectum scraper
good idea actually
>>
>>76946325
using one since 10 years+
sometimes you have stuff on your tongue so deep, it is impossible to get rid of it any other way

great tool, 10€ back then
buy once, use a lifetime
>>
>>76946325
If armageddon was taking place and the sky was on fire, my scraper is easily one of the top 5 things I'd grab before fleeing.

Makes your breath not smell, and the amount of gunk you scrape off is absurd to not use one. They're not expensive, just fucking get one.
>>
>>76946372
>rectum scraper
ah yes, the biggest meme of all. toilet paper.
>>
>>76946529
This, I usually get surprised by the amount of hidden gunk I scrape off with it. And I never get surprised by the amount of contrarian faggots on 4chan that will argue to the death against something as simple as a tongue scraper.
>>
>>76946325
useless if you have candida overgrowth, need to fix the root cause
>>
Just use a big spoon if you want to try it before a date or something
but as the other anon said, just use a toothbrush. I always do it before sleep because i dont want the disgusting taste in my mouth
>>
>>76946325
They destroy your tongue
Just brush it
>>
>>76947161
I asked ChatGPT and it said there's no evidence for tongue damage with normal use. Just don't press hard. Why would brushing be better? Scraping plastic bristles covered in fluoride into soft tissue?
>>
>>76947173
Whatever you do, don’t ask a professional. Ask anonymous people on 4chan. Ask ChatGPT AI. Don’t ask anyone in the dental community because they are all scammers trying to steal your money

Dentistry is an absolute scam that destroys perfectly healthy teeth to fill your mouth with heavy metals and compromise the integrity of good teeth with pseudoscience nonsense to make money. So, yes.
>>
>>76947205
Exactly, glad to see there’s someone with actual sense here on 4chan. They also falsify x-rays to show that you have cavities or root problems that they claim to need to fix. If I have these problems, why can’t I see them? They’re all scammers using pseudoscience
>>
>>76947212
Dentists are literally failed doctors who drill holes in and fuck up your teeth by permanently compromising their integrity. Fillings involve destroying more of your teeth instead of letting the body naturally remineralise.
>>
>>76947223
So, I generally don't like dentists or dental work and I also don't drink soda or coffee and smoke and all of that sort of stuff. I brush my teeth with the fluoride free stuff and I frequently use tooth picks to scrape plaque and bullshit out of my mouth after meals. I'm 37 and I've not been to the dentist since I was 20. I keep an eye on my teeth and enamel. They are the same that they have always been, I don't have discoloration, I don't have holes or dark spots, I don't have receding gums, I don't have any temperature sensitivity.

If you had told me at age 20 that dentistry was a completely unnecessary scam I would have said yeah ok bud. But after years of not going at all because I simply have absolutely no need, I think at the minimum the annual checks, the drilling, the "teeth cleaning" all of that stuff is snake oil bullshit they do to pad their pockets. I don't deny that there are things dentistry is extremely important for. If I chip a tooth, or need a root canal due to an infection, or some other major problem, but I think that they created this whole racket because they wanted consistent money out of people and that most of them probably actually believe it's good and necessary to do all this stuff. I think the average person if they don't have a horrific diet and don't totally neglect normal grooming habits have no need for a dentist most of the time.

>>76946947
lmao what are the other 4 things? are you bringing a yo-yo?
>>
>>76948017
toothbrush, toothpaste, floss and mouthwash
>>
>>76948106
bro what are you fucking eating
>>
>>76947961
Good post. I'm a similar age and in similar position. Haven't been for 15+ years. Just don't need to. Water flosser is really good once in a while too.
>>
Use a piece of dental floss to scrap your tongue
