Glosso

❓ Why should I use a tongue scraper?

A: The tongue harbors a significant portion of the oral microbiome, including anaerobic bacteria that contribute to halitosis (bad breath) and biofilm buildup. Mechanical tongue cleaning has been clinically shown to reduce volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) responsible for oral odor

❓ Does using a tongue scraper cause any harm?

A: When used correctly, tongue scraping is safe and non-invasive. Glosso is made of medical-grade stainless steel with a polished, rounded edge to prevent abrasion, laceration, or mucosal irritation.

❓ How often should I use it for best results?

A: Clinical guidelines recommend tongue cleaning once to twice daily as part of a complete oral hygiene routine. Morning use is especially effective in reducing overnight bacterial accumulation.

❓ Is tongue scraping better than brushing the tongue with a toothbrush?

A: Yes. Research indicates that dedicated tongue scrapers are significantly more effective than toothbrushes at removing tongue coating and reducing VSC levels. Scrapers provide targeted, consistent pressure across the tongue surface, unlike bristles.

❓ Is it suitable for all age groups?

A: Tongue scraping is generally safe for adults and supervised adolescents. For children, consult with a pediatric dentist before introducing it into their routine.
