What's it good for?
Ayurvedic medicine has used coconut oil as an antimicrobial for centuries to promote dental health through a process known as “oil pulling,” which will rid the mouth of bacteria that lead to tooth decay and bad breath.
It’s particularly effective at killing an oral bacteria called Streptococcus mutans, which is a leading cause of tooth decay.
It may also reduce another prevalent bacteria known as Candida albicans.
Cinnamon has been traditionally used in tooth powder for hundreds of years.
Numerous studies show that cinnamon benefits oral health and may protect against certain strains of bacteria that cause tooth decay, cavities, bad breath, and other mouth infections.
The active ingredient cinnamaldehyde has potent antifungal and antibacterial properties, which help to naturally combat bacteria associated with bad breath and gum disease.
Clove is still used in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine for a range of healing powers that are being proven by modern science:
- fights infections due to its anti-microbial & anti-fungal properties
- reduces free radicals linked to cancer due its extremely high ORAC value (Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity) - the highest out of 72 essential oils
- reverses inflammation and cellular oxidation.
- relieves respiratory disorders by decongesting and clearing bronchial passages while fighting pathogens
Hemp benefits the acids that are produced when oral based bacteria break down carbohydrates, which includes most sugars.
These acids cause the pH of your mouth to drop which results in an acidic environment whereby precious minerals are stripped from your teeth.
As teeth demineralize, they become susceptible to decay.
Conversely, teeth naturally absorb the minerals in your saliva and grow stronger in a neutral pH environment, so it’s imperative to maintain a neutral pH as much as possible.
Because CBD has antibacterial properties, a pH-balanced mouth will stay balanced.
Activated charcoal has been recommended for hundreds of years as an effective and powerful ingredient for oral care.
Observations suggest that using activated charcoal on your teeth is effective in adsorbing plaque and other compounds that stain teeth.
Meaning, the chemical properties of activated charcoal is a natural teeth whitener ~ it binds to the toxins, resulting in whiter teeth.
How to use?
