I came across information from a friend of mine who's mother WAS a dental hygenist who knew of a cheap simple remedy for a lot of if not all of what I had problems with. Among the list were bad breath, horrible bleeding gums, tooth aches, receding gums that actually pulled away from my teeth, yuck! And the (according to dentists)uncurable periodontal disease. Just my 2 cents!īaking Soda and Kosher Salt (chunky salt ) as a toothpaste/powder and 1% hydrogen peroxide and water mixture as mouthwash CURED several of my teeth/mouth ailments! Long story short.I had several problems with my teeth, gums and mouth. I believe it is possible and have read a little about it. Someday I do hope that I can get all of the fillings out and restrengthen my teeth naturally. Just one more reason among many to make sure I am getting enough. I also read that Vitamin D can also contribute to stronger teeth (well I guess that's the whole thing behind the milk industry?). If I recall correctly, beside the cleansing/polishing of the salts, the natural salts mineral's benefit and strengthen your teeth. * I would avoid just plain old salt or 'Kosher' Salt, as these are refined, 'useless' salts. Adding some Peppermint Oil or Leaves would make this ideal. Usually I just use plain old Baking Soda, but the Coconut Oil did make the paste much more 'luxurious' to use! I think if you flavored it nicely and coaxed them enough even kids would like it. Or perhaps just crushed Mint or herbal leaves Peppermint or other mint or culinary essential oil From some things I've read, I do still wonder about whether it is bad for the enamel.but so far positive posts on here, and honestly, unless I am completely unaware of the bad effect, it's been working just fine.Ī recipe I read online for natural toothpaste that I really enjoyed using is: I have been using Baking Soda as toothpaste for almost a year now and from what I can tell it works very well. Regular checkups are also important for maintaining dental health. Likewise, snacking and eating smart are important to maintain dental health – sugary, sticky snacks should be kept at a minimum. Each of these issues can be easily treated and even prevented with the right oral hygiene routine.Īn effective dental health regimen involves regular brushing at least twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste, flossing and regular rinsing. Bad breath, dry mouth, canker and cold sores and thrush among others are all signs of poor dental health. In addition to these issues, other oral health issues can also be cause for concern.
As such, the mouth, teeth and gums are susceptible to a number of issues.įrom cavities and tooth decay to tooth discoloration and grinding, several dental health issues have been identified. The oral cavity is one of constant moisture and warmth, making it the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. That being said, maintaining a high level of overall dental health is an important part of a healthy lifestyle.
It is often said that an individual’s combined dental and oral health is a window into his or her overall heath.
