Smoker's Tongue: The best treatment for "smoker's tongue" is to stop smoking! in the meantime, using a toothbrush or a tongue scraper may be helpful.

Stopping smoking: Would be the best 'tool.' there are a variety of dental appliances sold at any drugstore for cleaning tongues, and i don't know whether any one of them is better than any other. Your dentist or dental hygienist can tell you, but their first and best advice will be to stop smoking. Mine too.
