Everyone's mouths are full of different kinds of bacteria. Not everyone has the same amount. This bacteria helps you because it starts the process of digestion.
Too much bacteria in your mouth causes more than just tooth decay, gingivitis, or gum disease. So, even if you don't have gingivitis, you need to know how to stop the bacteria in your mouth from making plaque.
Gingivitis is caused by bacteria that live in plaque. These bacteria make your gums swell, bleed, and pull away from your teeth. When you have gingivitis, you may also have bad breath. In more serious cases, your gums get sore, your teeth hurt, your gums shrink, and your teeth become loose.
Use this natural remedy to kill some of these bacteria and strengthen your gums. This will stop the swelling and pulling apart of your gums.
For a mild case of gingivitis, you will need the following herbs and formula:
2 parts powdered white oak bark herb
1 part herb powder or granules made from myrrh gum
3/4 of peppermint leaves turned into a powder
half of the herb power or seeds of anise
1/8 part powdered clove
If herbs and leaves aren't already ground up, use a coffee grinder to do so. You can make as much powder as you want with this recipe.
Fill a small container with the mixture. I usually use a small, empty bottle of vitamins.
Most of the time, I mix a small amount and use a tablespoon to measure it. For example, 2 tablespoons of white oak, 1 tablespoon of myrrh gum, 1/3 of a tablespoon of peppermint leaves, and so on. Not every measurement has to be so exact.
Instructions:
Use this power once a week to get rid of bacteria in your mouth. You can use this three times a day if you have gingivitis. Brush your teeth and gums by putting some powder on your toothbrush. After brushing, spit the saliva and leftover powder out a few times. Don't rinse your mouth out because you want the herb powders to stay in your mouth. You can easily swallow any that is left in your mouth.
This mixture of powders tastes bad, but they are very strong and will do the job. If you want to make it less bitter, you can add more peppermint powder.
If your gingivitis or toothache is really bad, you can also make a paste out of some powder and distilled water and put it all over your teeth and gums, front and back. Keep as much of the paste in your mouth as you can. Don't be afraid that the herbs will get stuck in your teeth. This cure does work.
Last year, my wife was supposed to get a root canal, but a few weeks before the procedure, her tooth started hurting and she couldn't sleep. So I came up with this fix. She just put the powers on the area that hurt. She didn't have to wait long before the pain went away and she could go to sleep.
People have used this remedy for a month and not had to go to the dentist for gingivitis treatment. If your gingivitis is really bad, you should go to the dentist and use this treatment at the same time.
