If you have oral thrush, it rarely presents only on the tongue, usually on your other oral mucosa as well. You can read more on this topic from Mayo Clinic website: https://www.mayoclinic.org/symptoms/white-tongue/basics/definition/sym-20050676

You may not actually have oral thrush. The white appearance may just be your filiform papillae.
