Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I get a coated tongue but it sure isn't white but more the color of dried blood. I have been getting it for close to 3 yrs and it hasn't improved a bit yet. Hurts like it looks too. Like hell. I am now going thru a stage where my mouth id arrid dry and then later it can become hurricane wet. But as they say, Hey man I am alive and breathing with a TOOTHLESS SMILE.
