Journal Title: Journal of IMAB - Annual Proceeding (Scientific Papers) - Year 2012, Vol 18, Issue 2

Abstract

It is known that coating on the tongue can be expressed differently – from thin milk diaper, to thick dirty brown blanket, often associated with malodor in the mouth. Some diseases are suspected for causing increased coating of the tongue. The purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the degree of coating of the tongue in patients with gastrointestinal diseases and healthy ones.
