Practice Oil Pulling for a Cleaner Mouth
Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic technique that involves swishing oil—typically coconut oil—in the mouth for 10 to 20 minutes. This process helps pull out toxins, reduce bacteria, and even improve gum health.
Many people notice fresher breath and a cleaner mouth after just a few days of oil pulling. It’s best done in the morning before brushing to maximize its cleansing effects. Coconut oil also contains natural antimicrobial properties that support oral healing.
Eat More Raw, Crunchy Vegetables
Crunchy vegetables like carrots, celery, and apples do more than satisfy your hunger—they act as nature’s toothbrushes. As you chew them, they help scrub plaque and stimulate saliva production, which naturally protects your enamel.
Saliva is essential for keeping your mouth in balance. It helps wash away food particles and neutralize acids that wear down your teeth. Adding more raw veggies to your diet is a win for both your body and your smile.
