Abstract

Coated tongue is a mucosal condition characterized by a white or yellowish layer on the dorsum of the tongue due to the accumulation of debris, desquamated epithelial cells, and microorganisms. This condition is often associated with poor oral hygiene, xerostomia, smoking habits, and systemic diseases. This study aims to evaluate the profile of coated tongue incidence and its relationship to related risk factors at RSGM Universitas Andalas. This study is a retrospective descriptive study with a total sampling technique. Data were taken from patient medical records at the Oral Disease Polyclinic of RSGM Universitas Andalas in January–December 2023. Data collected included gender, age, cases of coated tongue , and risk factor status such as smoking, systemic diseases, drug use, stress, and Candida infection. Of the 620 patients, 566 (91%) had coated tongue. A higher prevalence was found in men (56%) than women (44%). All age groups 31–60 years showed a prevalence of coated tongue of 100%, while the age group 21–30 years was 91%. Most patients with coated tongue have smoking habits (69%), systemic diseases (80%), drug use (75%), and a small number experience stress (8%) and Candida infection (6%).Coated tongue is a very common condition in patients who come to RSGM Universitas Andalas, with a strong association with lifestyle and systemic factors. Promotive and preventive interventions are needed to increase awareness of tongue hygiene, as well as handling the accompanying risk factors.
