White tongue: You didn't mention if you were treated with antibiotics for your strep,throat. The white coating in your mouth may be a thrush infection. You can get an oral anti-fungal for your mouth or you can use biotin rinse

Dentist to start: Were you taking any meds for strep throat? Suggest a dentist evaluate first and go from there
