How the Body Works : Taste Centers

[Fxithful]

Well see i had this tongue cleaner and i guess i scrapped to hard so the stuff that you u see on your tongue when u open your mouth not the buds but just the tongue like its scrapped off some of that in the back and how long will this take to recover because its hetig annoying

Question: Can you lose your taste buds by brushing your tongue vigorously? And if so, will your taste buds come back?

[ReinaDelAcordeonMimi]

@mr808steelers Yes you can but people usually lose taste buds by burning them (such as drinking hot coffee). Taste buds have gustatory cells and they are among the most dynamic cells in the body. They are replaced every 7-10 days. So yes, your taste buds will grow back ☺

plz, im super sensitive to taste. If anyone knows a way for me to either numb my sense of taste or kill it completely, plz let me kno. And yes, I AM COMPLETELY SURE I WOULD BE HAPPIER IF I COULD NOT TASTE ANYTHING

@Dzubur1

You may ask your dentist to inject an anesthetic in the wrong spot (palate nerve), killing the nerve...

Some dentists actually manage to do that WITHOUT the patient having asked for it!

Or, you could try to get a chronic sinusitis. This pretty much numbs your taste too.

This system did not evolve. It was created by God.

Sorry, but at 0:47... those things look like boobs.

If those fungaform papillaes get swollen, you can just cut them off by a nailclipper og nailscissor. Just for your information!

[LgGerminator]

are you serious???

[denergod]

@denergod

this is definitely serious and something "crazy" people do worldwide with no risk at all. But it is a secret to most people and not something you do unless you have a problem with your papillaes. It doesn't hurt at all.

[NElTOKAKADU]

@denergod Wow. That sounds really strange. Do those things even grow back? Not like I'm going to do that anyway since my tongue is fine, but my curiosity awakened. O_o
