Results: Miley Cyrus Reveals All With Her Unhealthy White Tongue; And What It Says About Her Health.

Miley Cyrus can't (and won't stop) sticking out her tongue. But what is she potentially revealing about her health? It turns out the tongue reveals everything from dehydration to vitamin deficiencies, bulimia, excess alcohol use, drug use, and even cancer. "When we see anything other than that nice pinkish-red tongue with a little saliva--rather than being coated-- a little alarm bell goes off in our heads that says we should be looking at different things," said Dr. Mark Wolff, a professor at the NYU College of Dentistry. Have you noticed Miley Cyrus's odd white tongue?

Robert Mantoni, a DDS in the Washington, D.C., area, commented: "Looking at the white color on the top of the tongue, and knowing her wild lifestyle, I would start thinking alcohol, drugs, or maybe bulimia, since all those things can compromise the immune system and inflame the papillae. Alcohol in particular is such an irritant to the mouth." Did you know about all of this?

Your tongue is a window into what's happening in your body; color, coating and cracks are all indicators of the state of your health. What color is your tongue??

White tongue is usually the result of inflammation of the finger-like projections (papillae) on the surface of your tongue. The appearance of a white coating is caused by debris, bacteria, and dead cells getting lodged between the inflamed papillae. Luckily for Miley, the inflammation that leads to white tongue is often "harmless and temporary." Do you think Mileys crazy rock star life style has caused her tongue to become white?

Some helpful ways for treating "white tongue" for starters would be rinsing your mouth with warm salt water and peroxide cleansers. You can also buy a tongue scraper or gently brush your tongue, and try to practice more aggressive dental hygiene. Do you use a tongue scraper to clean your tongue, or do you just use your toothbrush to clean your tongue?
