Davids' Professional Tongue Scraper is a magic mouth wand for your cleanest mouth ever. Made in the USA from 100% medical-grade stainless steel, it features a smooth rounded edge to create a pleasant scraping action that's easy on your tongue, yet highly effective at removing unwanted bacteria. Tongue scraping is a quick and easy habit that improves your oral ecology and your well-being. Tongue scraping – an ancient Ayurvedic oral care remedy - can help eliminate bad breath, prevent cavities, improve internal organ function, and aid digestion by ridding the mouth of bacteria, build-up, dead skin cells, food particles, and fungus from the surface of the tongue. Adding this practice to your daily oral care regimen is a simple, powerful way to improve your sense of taste, monitor your internal health, and remove periodontal plaque.

How to Scrape Your Tongue
- Check tongue for changes. Before scraping, examine your tongue in the mirror. Note the color of your tongue and the texture of any film or buildup. Look at your tongue every time you scrape so you can closely monitor its health.
- Scrape back to front. The majority of bacteria that collect on the tongue hang out near the back where it is dark and warm. Gently glide across the surface of the tongue, scraping from the back to the front.
- Rinse between each scrape. Rinse the scraper with warm water to remove the residue that has collected on the scraper.
- Repeat 7 to 10 times. You may find that quick strokes of the scraper are more effective at removing buildup than one long scrape.
- Wash. Use soap and warm water to clean the Copper Tongue Scraper after each use. Use one of these natural sanitizers on the scraper once a month:
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to one tablespoon of baking soda. Rub the mixture onto your scraper with your fingers or a dry cloth and then rinse with water.
- Mix salt with a few teaspoons of vinegar or lemon juice and pour the mixture over your tongue scraper. Rinse with water and dry before using.
Founded by Eric David Buss in 2015, Davids Natural Toothpaste was founded with one vision: create the highest quality premium natural toothpaste with a commitment to sustainability: the sustainability of nature, the sustainability of American jobs, and the sustainability of your health…the sustainability of nature+america+you.
In 2011, Eric went on a quest to create his own toothpaste after looking into the ingredients being used in the “natural” toothpaste he was using and finding them to be unhealthy. This initial idea turned into a four-year obsession to develop the very best natural toothpaste possible and, in 2015, Davids was launched.
With sustainability as the foundation of their business, Davids focuses on supporting and sustaining US jobs by not only producing their toothpaste in the USA, but by also using only ingredients that are farmed, mined, and processed in the USA (98% of their ingredients are USA origin). And they focus on not only sourcing these ingredients within the US, but also ensuring they meet the highest purity and quality standards. And the packaging? Well the metal tube is recyclable (so important since each year about 1.5 billion toothpaste tubes end up in US landfills) with a food-grade non-BPA liner so no paste comes in contact with the aluminum, and the box in which the toothpaste comes is Forest Stewardship Council certified paperboard: ensuring that it comes from forests protected and managed by the FSC (the gold standard in forest certification).
