How to use the OraSweet tongue cleaner

Six simple steps for your daily oral hygiene routine, morning and evening, right after brushing.

  1. Step 1: Brush your teeth. Brush your teeth thoroughly with a toothbrush and toothpaste. A smiling woman brushing with a blue toothbrush.
  2. Step 2: Clean between teeth. Use dental floss or interdental brushes to clean between your teeth. A woman flossing between the front teeth.
  3. Step 3: Stick out your tongue. Stick out your tongue. Position the scraper as far back as feels comfortable. A woman with the tongue stuck out.
  4. Step 4: Scrape gently forwards. Gently draw the scraper towards the tip of your tongue using light pressure. Repeat as needed. A pink OraSweet tongue cleaner being drawn forwards over the tongue.

Important

Use gentle pressure, it should never hurt. Tongue cleaning is a supplement and does not replace brushing or cleaning between your teeth. Regular dental check-ups are always recommended, and young children should only use a tongue cleaner under adult supervision. Replace your tongue cleaner after 2–3 months of use.

Good advice

Gentle is best

  • Light pressure. The tongue is sensitive. The tongue cleaner should glide, not dig. It must never hurt or cause scratches.
  • Gag reflex? Start a little further forward and stick your tongue well out. Breathe out slowly as you go. Most people get used to it quickly and can gradually reach further back.
  • The whole width. Take one stroke in the middle and one on each side if your tongue is wide.
  • Make it a habit. Keep the tongue cleaner next to your toothbrush, and the third step will come naturally.

Hygiene and care

Clean tool, clean mouth

  • Rinse after use. Rinse thoroughly under running water. Now and then, wash it with a little soap and warm water.
  • Let it dry. Store it upright where air can reach it, for example in your toothbrush cup, so it dries between uses.
  • Don’t share it. For hygiene reasons, don’t share your tongue cleaner with others. That’s what the six colours are for.
  • Replace after 2–3 months. That way the cleaning edge always works at its best.
