Heal Your Teeth Naturally:
Potentially heal cavities, fractures and prevent root canals and periodontal disease with simple steps.
1. Homeopathy:
Calc Phos., Calc flor. and Symphytum can assist healing enamel, fractures and strengthen the teeth. Symphytum is especially appropriate for healing fractures.
2. Topical Applications:
Oregano oil, Colloidal Silver and Yunnan Baiyao powder can be applied topically in small amts. only one drop, spray or a few granules of the Yunnan Baiyao powder are needed. Leave them in the mouth or swish with salt water and rinse. I like leaving them in the mouth for 3-5 min and swishing. The Colloidal Silver spray is convenient and has no taste. Oregano oil is strong but follow with water. Only one drop is needed. Same with the Yunnan Baiyao powder. Oil pulling with Coconut Oil is very useful for drawing out bacteria and can be done daily or a few times per week.
Supplements:
1. Green Pasture Blue Ice Royal Butter/Fermented Cod Liver Oil. Very high in fatty acids to reduce inflammation, and vitamins D and A to heal teeth.
2. Bio Dent by Standard Process. High in essential minerals to keep teeth healthy and strong and minimize gum disease.
Diet:
While healing teeth or maintenance, avoid all white refined sugar, flour, processed foods and eat a whole foods diet of mostly organic vegetables, fruit as tolerated, organic, free range meat, eggs and dairy as tolerated, a small amt. daily of unrefined grains: rice, quinoa, oats, spell or rye etc. again, as tolerated. Keeping a simple diet, rest and exercise are the 3 Pillars of health in Chinese Medicine.
