QUESTION: Can Tongue Scraping Cause Bleeding?
The simple and short answer is this - tongue scraping is a painless and low risk procedure. There is nothing about tongue scraping that should be scraping you or making you think your tongue will start bleeding once you start using it.
If tongue scraping causes pain or bleeding, you should re-evaluate how you are using your gunkii tongue scraper.
Here Are Somethings You Should Adjust:
- don't use as much force
- use even pressure on both edges
- do not use it as frequently
In the very unlikely event that the above suggestions do not help it might be a great idea to contact your dentist and make sure nothing else is happening in your mouth.
A little pressure to clean your tongue should be a painless and enjoyable experience.
