Health starts with good oral hygiene, and having fresh breath is extremely important. We all want to be as healthy as possible and live a long time. But what many people do not realize is that the tongue is the place that bacteria is held and can be the cause of many health problems. If you do not brush your tongue correctly, you cannot expect to have a clean mouth and fresh breath. You probably speak with many people each day and you do not want them to step away because you have bad breath. Having fresh breath is important for many reasons and I have the perfect easy solution for you today.
TUNG has the solution to help you have good oral hygiene. Pictured above is the tongue cleaning brush and gel that are both made in the US. You can see a funny video that the TUNG company created, called, “Clean your tongue it smells like bum”. My boys found it quite funny!
Good oral hygiene is the key to good health
TUNG did something very unique, they combined a bacteria neutralizing gel with a tongue brush cleaner. When used together you can really feel your tongue get cleaner and your breath in turn feel fresher. What you cannot see is your oral health keeping you as healthy as possible. The brush was created so that you can clean the back of your tongue without gagging. You must be careful though and help younger children because they could put the brush in too far. You should be brushing your tongue with the gel every single time, after you finish brushing your teeth. Bacteria grows on your tongue quickly and you want to try to get rid of it as soon as possible. Many people just brush their tongue with their toothbrush each day. This is not recommended because then the bacteria from your tongue is quickly transferred to your teeth. A separate device like the TUNG brush is much better for your oral health. How does the gel work? The zinc in the gel neutralizes the bacteria on your tongue and gets rid of the sulphur which creates the bad breath smell.
My son who loves science enjoyed reading this article and then explained to me all about why we should all be cleaning our tongue. My kids have loved using TUNG brushes and find it kind of fun. After using our brushes and gel the past month I can really feel a difference in my mouth. My tongue and breath have never been cleaner and I feel good about my oral hygiene as well. If you want to buy a TUNG brush and gel for your family, you can find them on Amazon here: TUNG Brush & Gel – Tongue Cleaner – Starter Pack
This post was sponsored by TUNG. All thoughts and opinions are 100% our own. We were sent brushes and gel to try and we love them so much we use them daily.
I have seen this in stores but never thought to buy one to be honest with you.
Normally I just use my toothbrush but this looks like it would do a much better job.
It is not recommended to brush your tongue with your toothbrush because you are then spreading the bacteria around your mouth instead of getting rid of it!
I’ll have to get one of these. I’ve been brushing my tongue for years, but this looks like it would do a much better job. Thanks for sharing this.
Yes, you need a TUNG brush for sure!
My dentist once told me that almost all of bad breath germs actually live on your tongue. I’ve been brushing my tongue ever since. I need to get one of these.
Yes, this is totally true! You need a TUNG brush.
I admit I do not have one of these, now I am questioning how I have ignored this? It seems like a great tool to get the job done!
You never realized you need this until now.:)
Right? Who knew that you were missing one of these brushes your whole life!
I love brushing my tongue! sometimes you can brush your teeth and still feel stinky! this is a great way to get an entire mouth clean
Yup,the key to a fresh mouth is a clean tongue!
OK, I won’t say anything, but this: I am hunting this down for my husband. 😉 Just because I love him of course.
HAHAHA! This made me laugh out loud. Christmas stocking gifts for the whole family maybe?
It’s very important that we brush our tongue. My whole family does it!
That is awesome! I am so happy to hear that your family does this already.
I have never seen this before! I know you are suppose to brush your tongue, but I had no idea there was a brush dedicated JUST for that! What an awesome idea
Yup, a dedicated tongue brush! Pretty amazing, right? Keep your mouth as clean as possible.
I’ve been seeing this around, but I haven’t tried it yet. I’ve only been using the tongue cleaner that comes with my toothbrush, but I will get this after reading this post.
Awesome, I am so glad you learned about the TUNG brush, happy holidays!
I am looking for these kind of brush but I don’t know where I can buy.
At the end of the post is an Amazon link. You can get a brush and a gel for a very reasonable price.
Where can I buy this tongue cleaner? This is perfect for my kids.. Thanks for sharing this.
yes, you should buy a set of brush and gel for each of your kids. There is an Amazon link right at the end of the post!
I never even knew about these! I need to get one for everyone in my family!
You do need one for each person in the family. It is very reasonably priced and well worth good oral health!
This looks like an awesome product. I need to get one of them. I love that it’s rounded and great for cleaning your tongue. Better then using a toothbrush for it.
It is much safer to use one of these brushes than just brushing your teeth with your toothbrush. Then you are spreading the bacteria all around your mouth!
This is such a smart idea! I have something similar, but I’d love to try this one out. Such an important part of your daily routine! Love this thank you for sharing!
It is a very important part of the daily routine. Thanks for stopping by!
I could use one of these. I know that your tongue holds a ton of junk. It is good to scrap it but brushing seems even better.
Your tongue is full of bacteria, so everyone really needs one of these! It makes a perfect stocking stuffer.
Interesting, so there’s a separate cleaner you use for the tongue that is different from teeth? I always brush my tongue with the ridgeson the back of my tooth-brush, I wonder how different your tongue brush is from that. Thanks for the review.
If you are using a totally different part of your toothbrush to brush your tongue, then that is probably ok! This tongue brush feels very nice on my tongue and gives it a little massage to get rid of the bacteria.
It’s definitely time for my cleaning, but I make sure to brush my tongue when I brush my teeth and periodically gargle with peroxide. ^yolonda
Make sure you use a different brush for your teeth and tongue! You do not want to spread the bacteria.
Tongues have SO many germs! Thanks for letting me know about this product.
Tongues really do have so many germs! I am happy to share about this product with you today.
How cool! I brush my tongue, but I just use my toothbrush to do it. I need to get that cleaner. I have to get my husband and son theirs too.
Yup! Everyone needs their own tongue brush and cleaner. I am happy that I could share this information with you.
Never heard of tung cleaner before. It seems pretty interesting to have. I’ve always believe in brushing your tongue.
I am glad that you enjoyed learning about the TUNG cleaner. Brushing your tongue is very important.
I have heard of this brand, but I have never personally tried it even though I’ve heard nothing but good about it. I’ll have to try it sometime!
Yes, you should definitely try one!
Gppd oral hygiene habit is very important. Teaching your kids this at an early age is a must.
This is so true! Teaching your children young will give them lifelong habits of healthy teeth.
It amazes me that more people don’t know about this. I have a tongue cleaner and have been using it for years. This one looks pretty cool compared to mine!
Well most people do not know about cleaning their tongue! Having a specific device to clean it with is very rare~
I have been brushing my tounge for years!!!! I always thought everyone did until I met my hubby and had to teach him
That this is a thing lol
Hahaha! That is pretty funny. We always need to teach the boys in our lives everything!
What a great information, I’d love to have this kind of brush, where can i buy it.
Hi Victoria, There is a link at the very end of the post where you can buy one on Amazon. Thanks for stopping by.
I always brush my tongue with toothbrush when I brush, but this looks like it would work a lot better and be less harsh, also.
It is also not so great to use your toothbrush because you then spread the bacteria all throughout your mouth!
