The pic attached shows extrinsic discoloration(staining) of tongue with central area of depapillation.
Extrinsic staining can be caused by consumption of colored/iron rich foods like pomegranate ,blueberries ,excessive tea/coffee etc
Central area of depapillation can be caused by nutritional deficiencies like B12/Iron ,condition called geographic tongue ,GI disturbances etc
Next Steps
Visit Dentist for a thorough evaluation and investigations,then a treatment plan would be formulated according to the cause
