Abstract

The author surveyed 80 patients who had tongue plaque through the oral examination and taking the clinical photograph as well as classifying the type of tongue plaque, and made the tongue-cleaning machine and tested by using the machine to investigate efficiency of tongue plaque removing by the type of tongue cleaner, its material, and application force. The following result were obtained; l.Most adults have D-type tongue plaque(76.25%), others have I-type tongue plaque(11.25%), and T-type tongue plaque(10.00%). 2.The efficiency of tongue plaque removing increased as tongue cleaning force rise. 3.Removing efficiency of D-type and T-type tongue plaque was higher by using linear filament type tongue cleaner than other tongue cleaner. 4.Groove type and linear filament type tongue cleaner had higher removing efficiency of I-type tongue plaque. 5.Proper type tongue cleaner is recommended to each patient for prevention and reduction of oral malodor and efficient tongue plaque removing.
