If you use hydrogen peroxide as a mouthwash to whiten your teeth everyday, can that cause someone to get black tongue? :D

Don't use it EVERY day. It can disrupt the normal flora of the buccal cavity, and cause irritation of the gums, although I never heard of "black tongue" which is caused by a fungus. I use it about once a month. Before brushing, I take a swig and hold it as long as I can, spit it out and rinse well. DO NOT SWALLOW ANY!

No, I used to use it every day, dip my brush in it and then dabbed in baking soda. But I did use the very mild solution.
