Answers:
What they said: plaque buildup, which leads to bad breath.

A tongue scraper works well if you use it frequently enough.
Brushing your tongue with your toothbrush is just as good. I wouldn't recommend using toothpaste to clean it though because your tongue can pick up colors and dyes very easily. Use a non-alcoholic mouthwash afterwards if you're worried about smell (I recommend Crest Pro-Health)Health Question & Answer
