Geographic tongue can look different ways...in a fairly mild case, the tongue would have a slight loss of taste buds alongs the edges of the tongue.

A more severe case may develope a crack, some being 1/4 of a n inch deep.

Why do you have cracks in your tongue?
A tongue that is constantly peeling for almost no reason at all is called a geographical tongue. Geographic tongue is a harmless (benign) oral condition that gives your tongue a map-like, or geographic, appearance. The distinct look of geographic tongue occurs when parts of your tongue are missing the layer of small bumps called papillae. This causes irregularly shaped smooth, red patches to form on parts of your tongue, like a rash. Although geographic tongue may look alarming, it doesn't cause any health problems and isn't associated with infection or cancer. Geographic tongue is usually painless but can sometimes cause tongue discomfort and increased sensitivity to certain substances. Geographic tongue often heals in one area and then moves (migrates) to a different part of your tongue. Geographic tongue is also known as benign migratory glossitis. If you have further issues that are of concern please contact your doctor as soon as possible.

Geographical tongue is a condition when the tongue looks like there are raised continents on it. It moves around and looks 'geographic". It is not a yeast infection. It is also not cause by bacteria. There is no cause or 'cure' for it, but it has been said that Vitamin B can helps minimize it and the certain foods can make it worse (citrus and spicy are a couple). It occurs more often in children and some websites I went to say that she will outgrow it.
