How to be your own dentist

Tooth Reflex Chart
Did you know that each tooth is connected to an organ or system within
the body. So when you remove a tooth it is really important to have this
space filled with something that will create pressure on the gum space.
This also helps to create good bone density. I have a little 2 - teeth prop
which was created for me in Mexico. I just pop it in & out from my
mouth, but essentially there is always pressure on that gum area. I lost 5
& 6 upper left - stomach & spleen.
Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide
I then add 2 tear drop size or amount, which is a very
small amount, to my electric tooth brush to run over my
teeth after using the waterpik. Hydrogen peroxide is
wonderful for helping to create a hygienic environment
for the teeth & gums. The presence of oxygen gets rid of
any anaerobic bacteria. This unwanted bacteria prevents
the good bacteria (just like the good bacteria in your gut
and eyes). People who suffer from dry eyes usually
require assistance with good bacteria.
All mucus membrane areas are in need of good bacteria
including the mouth and gums. So if there is an
imbalance of good bacteria in the body people may
suffer from tooth decay and dry eye syndrome and gut
problems. It is all the same. The immune system needs
replenishing.
Avoid unnecessary sugar in your diet and add good
probiotics and prebiotics, reduce stress and clean out
the liver & gallbladder to make sure you have enough
bile salts coming via the gallbladder. The bile helps to
maintain the correct pH of the small intestine & can
prevent dysbiosis.
Ayurvedic practice of oil pulling
In Ayurvedic practice people used high
quality sesame seed oil. I personally love to
use good quality coconut oil. Coconut oil has
many positive health benefits. Oil pulling is
fabulous
*cleansing the upper lymphatics *nourishing
the gums by removing the unwanted
bacteria
*It’s fabulous for receding gums
*And because the teeth are porous the oil
cleanses the teeth too Oil pull for 20mins.
The longer you keep the oil in your mouth
after 15mins the more bacteria is removed.
And therefore helps to keep your breath
smelling fresh too Cold pressed coconut oil
is known to be anti fungal, helps balance
hormones inclusive sugar levels & helps
rebalance cholesterol levels TIP - It is helpful
to avoid this practice if you have a mouth full
of amalgam fillings. You want to reabsorb
toxins back into your body.
