Coating of the tongue is a normal phenomenon which can happen more frequently and with high intensity in some patience and is nothing to worry about. Your role is making sure that you keep the tongue clean bye using your toothbrush to clean your tongue regularly. Avoid using tongue cleaners for this purpose because they do more harm than good.
Maintaining an adequate level of hydration is also equally important.
