I have been on antibiotics for almost three weeks now. I had an infection in my mouth because of impacted wisdom teeth. my dentist gave me antibiotics to be on until the teeth came out. I had 3 removed 6 days ago. recently i got a good look at my toungue and it scared the **** outta my. it was all orange. i brushed it and cleaned it good and now its looks a lot better, but close up it looks kinda white and fuzzy. im pretty sure its hairy toungue. is it related to my dental work and antibiotics, or the sign of a serious problem?! also how can i clear it up? is it cureable?
Can hairy toungue be related to recent antibiotics and dental work?
If your tongue feels hairy, it is a sign of a suprainfection, caused by the antibiotics. It causes the normal bacteria in the body to overgrown. It can be treated with medications.

It's not a super-infection, so don't be scared... it's just a reaction
