My Mouth - Geography tongue - spots all over my tongue !! Posted: 08-02-07 06:07am
One day i woke up and look at my tongue
and i have spots all over it. i googled up
what appeared to be something called
Geography tongue. I also get canker sores
sometimes. I was wondering if my mouth is
dirty or; what or do i need a special
tooth paste to prevent this. i bought a
mouth wash and this Listerine tooth paste
thats suppose to kill germs and bacteria
but i still get it sometimes. Any
Suggestions?
