I used Orajel on my tongue, but only on the parts of my tongue that really hurt. I think Colgate makes something similar. It actually worked better/lasted longer than any of my prescription stuff. I just screamed a bit when I first put it on - then the numbness would set in. As Christine says - a rinse might work better if it's your whole tongue.
