ABSTRACT:
A hygienic tongue cleaner includes a support member having an upper surface area arranged so as to fit snugly within the roof area of a mouth of an individual user. The lower surface of the support member includes a tongue cleaner element or elements against which one's tongue may be rubbed to obtain a cleansing action of the upper surface of the tongue while the support member is retained in position within the roof area of the mouth. The support member may include teeth engaging portions that secure the support member against motion during the tongue rubbing and cleansing procedure. The location and arrangement of the tongue cleaner avoids generation of a gagging reflex in a user.
