🌿 NATURAL GUM HEALING + WHITENING PLAN AND TEETH
🦷 DAILY ORAL CARE ROUTINE
1. Oil Pulling (Morning Ritual)
• How: Swish 1 tbsp of organic cold-pressed coconut oil in your mouth for 10–15 minutes, then spit in the trash.
• Benefits: Reduces bacteria, inflammation, and promotes gum healing. Naturally whitens teeth.
• Optional: Add a drop of clove oil or tea tree oil (antibacterial).
2. Natural Toothpaste
• Use a fluoride-free toothpaste with calcium bentonite clay, baking soda, and essential oils like clove or myrrh.
• Or DIY: Mix baking soda + coconut oil + 1 drop peppermint + 1 drop tea tree.
3. Brush Gently but Thoroughly
• Use a soft-bristle toothbrush and don’t brush too hard—aggressive brushing worsens recession.
4. Salt Rinse (Healing Antibacterial Rinse)
• Mix ½ tsp Himalayan salt in warm water. Swish for 30 seconds twice daily.
• Optional: Add a splash of hydrogen peroxide (3%) for whitening and deeper cleansing.
