A recent scientific study suggests that people who were living with at least one person who tested positive for Covid-19 and brushed their tongue daily were less likely to become infected by the virus.
While these results are not absolutely conclusive as of yet due to certain limitations of the study, tongue brushing certainly has other advantages that would still make it a good idea including:
- improving your sense of taste;
- removing bacteria from your mouth which can cause tooth decay which in turn can lead to cavities;
- helps prevent periodontal or gum disease’
- reducing bad breath.
So, make sure you add tongue brushing to your daily dental health regimen!
