Conclusion :
The elderly patient is more likely to exhibit a coated tongue than the younger patient. Change in dietary habits, inability to physically cope with oral-hygiene techniques, a decrease in the salivary flow and change in the nature of the saliva will all lead to accumulation of oral debris and its deposition on teeth, supporting tissues and the dorsal aspect of the tongue
