Good dental hygiene is necessary to prevent tooth decay, halitosis, and periodontal disease(gingivitis, pyorrhea).
Plaque is the film in which harmful mouth bacteria live, and can begin to damage teeth and gums within 12 hours after a meal. It is important to brush at least twice a day, and floss or water pick prior to sleep. Regular dental check ups, healthy diet and supplementation can prevent harmful damage from the onset. Stress reduces salivary flow allowing bacteria to flourish. Relax more!
Although not all people are sensitive to mercury release, there is no doubt that there are definite immuno-toxic effects from mercury amalgam fillings. Mercury is a heavy toxic metal that kills beneficial bacteria and allows resistant strains to flourish. The best choice is to have the fillings gradually removed and replaced, however there are metal detox programs available to release mercury from your bloodstream.
Halitosis is typical of poor dental hygiene. Factors for its appearance may include gum disease, tooth decay, heavy metal buildup, nose or throat infection, improper diet, smoking, constipation, unhealthy colon, liver malfunction, stress, and an inadequate digestion of protein.
Gingivitis is an early stage of periodontal disease and is caused by plaque sticking to the teeth. The accumulation of plaque causes the gums to become infected and swollen. As the gums swell, pockets form between the gums and the teeth and act as a trap for even more plaque. The gums ultimately become red, soft and shiny and can bleed easily.
If left untreated gingivitis can lead to pyorrhea an advanced stage of periodontal disease in which the bone supporting the teeth begins to erode as a result of the infection. Pyorrhea causes halitosis, and bleeding, painful gums. In addition to poor diet, improper brushing, excess sugar consumption, smoking etc. pyorrhea is often related to a deficiency of Vitamin c, bioflavonoids, calcium, folic acid, or niacin.
An astonishing number of people suffer from some sort of gum disease, halitosis, or tooth decay. The number one way to keep your teeth and keep your gums healthy is to eat a natural, healthy diet, clean them well, get enough sleep, exercise and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Lifestyle and Supplementation to promote healthy teeth and gums:
Cleansing fast or detoxifying cleanse of intestinal tract and colon recommended.
Eat primarily a diet of fresh and high fiber foods consisting of fruits, green, leafy vegetables, and whole grains to supply the "exercise" the teeth and gums require.
Chew sprig of parsley after a meal as a treatment for bad breath.
Reduce acidic citrus juices if you have weak teeth. No sweets or sodas.
Avoid sugar and all refined carbohydrates. Sugar causes plaque buildup and inhibits the ability of white blood cells to fight off bacteria.
Brush your teeth with Goldenseal powder everyday for at least one month. After one month, change toothpaste. Change toothbrushes once a month to keep disease in check. Store toothbrush in hydrogen peroxide when not in use. Don't forget to brush your tongue.
Floss teeth daily
Use natural mouthwashes of myrrh, peppermint, rosemary and sage.
Use Goldenseal extract on infected area of gums twice a day for three days to heal them.
