A white tongue is usually caused by a buildup of bacteria, debris, and dead cells trapped between inflamed papillae on the tongue’s surface. Common triggers include poor oral hygiene, dehydration, smoking, and certain medications. While often harmless, it can sometimes indicate conditions like oral thrush or leukoplakia. Maintaining good oral care, staying hydrated, and regular dental checkups can help prevent it and keep your mouth healthy.
