Tongue has dryness and no taste?

Dry mouth?: You don't say whether you're taking medications, but medication side effects would be a very common cause of dry mouth. Dehydration would rate highly also. There are other possible causes that your doctor can consider and help you with, if you visit him or her. In the meantime, make sure you drink at least 8, 8oz glasses of fresh water every day. Hoping that will help.

See oral surgeion: Has this been going on for a long time? Are you taking any medications? I recommend you see an oral surgeon for evaluation and then they can help suggest further treatment.
