What Ohsuzan said, about the explosive tonguing. When I was just getting started, I posted a video of me playing, and she pointed out (very kindly) that I seemed to be starting each note with a rather explosive noise, that I should perhaps try to start each note more quietly.
Second what everybody said above, about rinsing your mouth thoroughly before you play, and also about drinking only water while you play. I used to drink soda while I was playing, until one day I realized that the water that was dribbling out from the bell smelled like ginger ale, and that's when I realized why all my keys were always so sticky. lol.
