Reply:It's easy to make your own natural toothpaste! These instructions are especially useful if you are trying to minimise exposure to fluoride, such as for children or people who already have fluoresces. It's sugar-free and non-toxic.





Mix three parts baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) with one part table salt (sodium chloride).


Add three teaspoons of glycerin for every 1/4 cup of dry mixture.


Add enough water to make a thick paste. If desired, a few drops of peppermint oil may be added to improve the taste.


Apply and use just as you would any other toothpaste. Store unused toothpaste at room temperature in a covered container.
Reply:"Some of the more popular ingredients to look for in natural dental care products include myrrh, fennel, anise, sage, clove, eucalyptus, geranium, peppermint, and tea tree oil. Co-Q10 is especially beneficial for the gums, while propolis, goldenseal, and echinacea help ward off infections. Sea salt, baking soda, and vitamin C help whiten teeth and remove plaque, and calcium strengthens tooth enamel and inhibits decay. And most products contain natural flavors, including cinnamon, cherry, anise, peppermint, and wintergreen.





One new, all-natural mouthwash contains no alcohol, chemicals, or preservatives, and works to eliminate bacteria, condition gums, and rebuild connective tissue. Unlike commercial mouthwashes, it penetrates the outside layer of the tissues and helps support the body's immune system. This tonic contains echinacea, pure plant saponins, and gotu kolu, plus essential plant oils, including peppermint, red thyme, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus, and lavender.





More than just toothpastes and mouthwashes can help you maintain a brilliant smile. Specific products are available to naturally address particular conditions. Mouth tonics and topical drops with goldenseal and myrrh help heal bleeding gums. Toothpastes for sensitive gums and teeth contain silica and vitamin C. And homeopathic remedies containing such ingredients as calendula, arnica, plantago major, phytolacca decandra, and phosphorous benefit overall oral health.





So take care of your teeth naturally, now, and you'll enjoy overall better health -- and fewer trips to the dentist. Fillings and root canals don't have to be a part of your life. With all the natural alternatives to traditional tooth care, you may not need to grin and bear it any more.

Reply:I saw a program a few years ago about a man who has not been to dentist for years and doesn't require their services either. He claimed it was due to eating pineapples.





Don't remember what program was called but it was science based.





Hope that helps :)
