Tongue scraping is done immediately upon waking, before eating or drinking anything.Hold one end of the tongue scraper in each hand.Place the rounded part of the scraper as far back on the tongue as possible.Gently scrape the tongue from back to front with light pressure.Repeat several times, cleaning both the center and sides of the tongue.
It removes the layer of bacteria, toxins and dirt that has built up on the tongue overnight.It promotes fresh breath and prevents bad breath.According to Ayurveda, it helps improve digestion and overall health by eliminating toxins.If you want to keep the scraper clean, you can clean it with salt and white vinegar to prevent oxidation.

For the skeptics among us: Official recommendation of the American Dental Hygienists Association:
"Removing bacteria and dead tissue with tongue scrapers, instruments designed exclusively for use on the tongue, is as essential for fresh breath as regular brushing. Tongue scrapers apply even pressure that pushes bacteria, food particles and dead cells out of the pits and crevices of the tongue that a toothbrush can't remove."
