The effect of coconut oil is much better for your dental care than toothpaste, claim the scientist in their new study from the Athlone Institute of Technology in Ireland.
According to the new advantages of coconut oil, we recommend to swap the old toothpaste with a spoonful of coconut oil.
Why Coconut Oil Is Better Than a Toothpaste?
Coconut oil cleans your teeth and prevents decay better than any mouthwash or toothpaste with fluoride. Since the coconut oil is natural, you shouldn’t be worried about chemicals. The study says that coconut oil can kill common strains of bacteria in the mouth better than toothpaste such as Candida albicans which is particularly harmful.
Coconut oil has the power to eliminate yeast in the mouth and toothpaste doesn’t have the same effect. Yeast is associated with many dental diseases and decay, so eliminating the yeast will also improve your dental health. Remember, yeast is not only bad for tooth health, it’s also bad for the digestive tract.
How to Use Coconut Oil for Cleaning Your Teeth?
You will need only one spoonful of coconut oil for brushing your teeth.
Also you can try this method for cleaning your teeth – oil pulling. Take a spoonful of coconut oil and put it in your mouth. Allow it to melt and swish the oil back in forth in your mouth like you would with mouthwash. You should do it for about 30 minutes, or at the beginning until you get used to it, do it while showering. Once you are finished, spit out the oil, do not swallow it.
We assure you that your teeth will be pearly white.
