Instructions
- Baking Soda Paste: Mix 1 teaspoon of baking soda with a few drops of water until it forms a paste. Apply to your toothbrush and gently brush for 2 minutes to neutralize acids and loosen plaque.
- Coconut Oil Pulling: Place 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in your mouth and swish for 10–15 minutes. Spit it out and rinse with warm water. This helps reduce bacteria and freshens breath.
- Sea Salt Rinse: Dissolve ½ teaspoon of sea salt in a cup of warm water. Swish around your mouth for 30 seconds, then spit. Salt acts as a natural disinfectant and soothes gums.
- Vinegar Solution: Mix 2 teaspoons of white vinegar with ½ cup of water. Rinse your mouth thoroughly for 30 seconds. Vinegar helps break down tartar deposits.
- Lemon Juice Rub: Dip a cotton swab in fresh lemon juice and gently rub it on teeth for 1 minute. Rinse immediately with water to avoid enamel damage. Lemon’s acidity helps loosen buildup.
- Aloe Vera Gel Application: Apply a small amount of aloe vera gel directly to your teeth and gums. Leave for 5 minutes, then rinse. Aloe vera fights bacteria and supports gum health.
- Clove Powder Scrub: Mix ½ teaspoon of clove powder with a few drops of olive oil. Rub gently on teeth and gums for 2 minutes, then rinse. Cloves reduce inflammation and fight microbes.
- Sesame Oil Massage: Dab a little sesame oil on your toothbrush and gently massage teeth and gums. This traditional method helps remove toxins and strengthens gums.
- Guava Leaf Chew: Wash fresh guava leaves and chew them slowly for 2–3 minutes. Spit out the residue. Guava leaves contain compounds that reduce gum swelling and fight bacteria.
