Orange tongue 99 percent gone
My journey started about two years ago. My orange tongue is about 99% clear. I now use Crest Gum Detoxify toothpaste and scrub my tongue with it. I use "grin" tooth scraper. It's plastic and takes the layers off every morning. I do not reuse the scraper. They are cheap enough to buy. I also use a tongue brush. The whole front of my tonque is clear. What activates it growing back is Sugar!! If I eat a certain amount of sugar, I have new growth in morning. If I stay away from sugar....it goes away. The only part that is left is a very small amount at the back of my tongue. Since the tongue curves down your throat, you cannot reach that area. But my breath is fresher and no one notices it now. Its due diligent to keep using the scraper and gum detoxify toothpaste. Gargle with salt warm water. You will see amazing results. The scraper takes off several layers at a time.

Update on orange tongue. I found two more things to help. One: Gargle with warm water and salt. Try holding in mouth and swish for as long as you can then hold your head up and gargle as far down as you can in your throat. Two:
I also found foods with yeast as well as sugar activates and brings back an onset of the growth. I am happy to say that my tongue appears normal with the exception of my back right side. It is so small you don't notice but I am starting to do the salt water (I use no luke warm but almost hot water). It clears right up.
