Here is How to Treat Gum Diseases and Heal Cavities Naturally at Home

Americans eat highly acidic foods, loaded with fats and sugar. It is not health-friendly in many aspects. Acidic blood makes the body pull minerals from every source possible in order to balance its pH value, meaning there are less minerals for your bones and teeth.

Fats are considered to be inflammatory by nature or have the totally opposite effect. Both types are necessary, but American diet is loaded with inflammatory fats, and what is even worse, much of this fat does not occur in nature and is considered to be toxic to human health.

An average American is significantly inflamed throughout the body in so many ways. And yes, almost every single American eats loads of sugar.

Which foods should you avoid to maintain good oral health

  • Refined foods
  • Sugar
  • Acidic foods
  • Processes, prepackaged foods

Eat more raw, whole produce, and always opt for more veggies than fruits. This is healing. Buy organic brown rice, quinoa, sprouted legumes, make a vegetable stir fry, and remember, raw, fresh, organic produce is always the best choice.

Balance  your gut

Good oral health and poor gut health do not come together.

If you are dealing with serious health problems, try considering a detox program and improve your gut function. This will also kill of candida and other parasites, while balancing gut microbes. Your intestines is where good health starts, same as bad health.

Stop smoking

Smoking, both tobacco and marijuana, affects oral health. Same goes to vapors. If you want to protect your oral health, and cannot give up on lighting a cigarette once in a while, the best thing you can get is hoping that your health condition will not get any worse. You may not face some serious problems, but your mouth will not heal completely.

Forget about toxic toothpaste and mouthwash

You can find some high-quality toothpastes on the the market, but even though they are sorted in the healthy-products section, check the labels for any of these ingredients: sodium laurel sulfate (SLS), triclosan, artificial colors, flavors, pretty much anything artificial, hydrated silica and alcohol.

Floss every daily, and do it PROPERLY

You may floss, but you may not do it properly. Flossing is essential if you are dealing with gingivitis, as it removes food from the sides of your teeth so the food cannot feed bacteria.

Make your own toothpaste

You can also make your own, natural toothpaste. Use it to brush your teeth three times a day. Here is the recipe:

Ingredients:

  • equal parts of baking soda and coconut oil
  • essential oil to taste
  • stevia, to taste

If you are using 6 tablespoons of oil, add in 6 tablespoons of baking soda, and 10-15 drops of essential oil of your choice. Peppermint, eucalyptus, cinnamon, clove, lemon, orange, rosemary are some the recommended options, but you can use any combination that seems good to you.

Essential oil provides more than just a taste and every kind has its own benefits. You can use just one, or combine your favorite. Make sure you buy your oil from a trusted source and opt for the right genus species. Oils come from different species and provide different properties.

There is a third step in oral hygiene for those who deal with gingivitis: Dr. Shillington’s Tooth and Gum formula. It can be also used as a preventive treatment.

Oil pulling

It is a traditional Ayurvedic technique for oral care. All you have to do is swish some oil in your mouth for about 15-20 minutes. Sesame oil is traditionally used, but coconut oil is commonly recommended, and experts will agree on this one.

For optimal results, use essential oils like peppermint, cinnamon or clove. Tea tree oil and oregano oil are also good options, but some find them pretty intense. You may want to start off with a tiny amount.

Swish the oil same as you do with your regular mouthwash. Pull it trough your teeth for 15-20 minutes. Be careful, you do not want to swish it too hard, as your cheeks might get sore quickly.

Spit the oil. You must not swallow it, as it contains all the bacteria and pretty much everything that you have pulled out of your oral cavity.

The aforementioned tips represent a totally holistic approach to gum disease, cavities and other mouth ailments. Good oral health means having good overall health. Balance your gut, and protect its function.
