Answer #4

I have a strong gag reflex so it is impossible for me.

I use a tongue scraper rather than a brush which makes it a little easier to reach the back on my tongue.

Answer #5

brush it slowly and stop when you feel like you’re about to gag. choose a soft-bristled brush because it irritates the tongue less. also, there are some toothbrushes that have a small, raised rubber bristles at the back of the tooth brush head, specifically for tongue cleaning.
