I started using tongue scrapers about 10 years ago, my plastic ones from that long ago (by Breath Remedy) were lasting fine until the dog chewed them up! I tried to buy some replacements and found the ones created today are much too soft. I tried all kinds of brands but found they all bent under pressure and just did not have the sharpness to their edge to get a good scrape. I ran across this one and FINALLY I have my replacement.... and it is one the dog can't chew up! The handle is a bit awkward but the nice edge and the permanence of stainless steel makes up for it. Great product, and my search is over!

When I first started using a tongue scraper 3 years ago, I immediately noticed results. Not only was my mouth & breath fresher, but it also cut cravings b/c the taste of foods no longer lingered. Before I used plastic versions, but decided to try this after positive reviews and I love it. It's easier to clean the instrument and seems to do a more thorough job. I highly recommend.

Its light and the metal is thinner than I was expecting, but otherwise its great! You won't have to replace it like the plastics that are meant to be replaced every 3 months. Use it along with brands like Therabreath or Profresh, and you'll be set.

I got this after reading the bad reviews of other brand tongue scrapers that are plastic, how they break and do not even clean well. Well I have now been using this for two days and wow, it works so well. I used it this morning and it is 4 o'clock in the after noon and my mouth still feels really fresh. Not only is it a strong cure for breath problems but my tongue looks more healthy and pink like the other reviewers noted, and this is only after 3 uses! I can only imagine it will get better the more I use it. So my verdict is 5/5 and well worth the money, use this with mouth wash and it's a killer combination for dental hygiene.

Buyers may be wary spending 13 bucks on a tongue scraper but it is worth the money because you will literally never have to buy another one, it is made out of surgical steel and the metal is coated with a coating that makes water just bead off of it, I don't think it will ever wear out.

Hate to give this just 1 star, but this over-priced dental instrument is a waste of money.

I've been using a tongue scraper for many years. It's a great way to have clean breathe and keep that funk from building up on your tongue.

I've always purchased various cheap plastic tongue scrapers for $2-3 at my local drug store such as this one: DenTek Tongue Cleaner - 1 Ea Sku Hd 1752484 They work fine but would eventually become stained and I would toss them and get another.

I read about the Stainless Steel Tongue scraper on some health site. I liked the idea of a "high end" tongue scraper that I could clean instead of tossing into the landfill.

Got the Stainless Steel Tongue scraper a few days ago and I am disappointed. First of all and most importantly, it simply is NOT a good scraper. The edge is not sharp enough. It reminds me of the same sharpness of a steel table spoon - which is what I used to use before I started buying purpose-built plastic tongue scrapers.

After doing a side-by-side comparison of my Dentex $3 rubber-coated plastic tongue scraper to the $15 Stainless Steel Tongue scaper it is without question: the plastic scraper is much more effective in every way. It is sharper (but not too sharp) than the Stainless. And it flexes and accommodates the curve of your tongue better than the rigid Stainless scraper. Lastly, the plastic Dentex scraper is $3 - not $15 (sheesh, I was almost going to get the $40 Titanium scraper - what a waste of money that would have been).

In sum, the Stainless Scraper, and, I suspect, all the metal scrapers from the manufacturer are about as effective as a stainless steel table spoon. Which is to say, not very effective. Save your $$ and just get the plastic ones - they work so much better.

This is likely the nicest consumer scraper on the market. The picture makes it look more solid than it actually is. The handle is not a full 3D diamond shape, just one ply, bent at an angle. I got the titanium version so it is deceivingly light weight and I am sure that is part of it. Overall, a nice product.

Bought two of these and I am glad I did. I keep one in my dop kit for traveling. I have always had a hard time getting my tongue clean and this does the job. If you try to clean your tongue with a hard bristle tooth brush like I do (did), do yourself a favor and buy one or two of these. You will be glad you did. I still brush my tongue with a hard bristle brush after using the sweeper, but probably more out of habit than anything else. You will be grossed out by what you scrape off the back of your tongue!

I started using this product a few months ago and was pleasantly surprised how well it works. Much of the bacteria that causes bad breath is on one's tongue. Brushing helps get some of it off. But the tongue scraper does a more thorough job - at least for me. It is not a substitute for brushing, flossing, or mouth wash. But it does help in reducing bad breath.

First as to the merchant, the product came promptly and packaged so as to protect what I bought.

Secondly, I love this tongue scrapper. After my dentist had recommended, I went to the drug store and bought one of the platsic ones they had. It worked ok but I thought that the part that touches your tongue was too wide. If it was half the size, then it would do a better job of cleaning the tongue as the tongue has that sort of line divider down the middle. :) and there was no real way to go down the middle of the tongue with the larger plastic one and actually clean well that part of the tongue. This tongue scrapper is maybe 1/4 the size smaller and so it fits perfectly down the right side of the tongue and then the left and really gets much more food/bacteria. Also, it is sturdier because it is metal, which I had read somewhere is actually a benefit against the bacteria but I can't remember why. I had never used a tongue scrapper before and thought: "WHY?" But it does make a difference in how clean my mouth tastes.

I have had this tongue cleaner for 2 days now and it is a fantastic product. I did expect it to be a bit heavier and more solid from the pictures on Amazon. I can tell you one thing for sure that this I a light weight and very fine instrument. At first just looking at it and holding it I had some doubts but after my first use I realized that it is more efficient design and it does an overall better job than the old plastic cleaner I had purchased from Wal-Mart. The reason it works so well is because of the way the head is angled. The angel of the head helps pick up more junk from your tongue and because it is small in size you are able to clean further back in your tongue. Overall it is a very good product and I see it lasting for a very long time since it is metal.
