This is an old remedy but very powerful. In some parts of the world like India, this remedy is still practiced.

The twigs of these trees are used to brush teeth.  These trees include Babool (Acacia Arabica),  Banyan (Ficus religiosa), and Neem or Margosa (Azadirachta indica). Using them is very easy.

  • Take a tender twig from the branch of the tree, the standard size of a tooth-brush. Wash the twig well with water. Now chew slowly one end of the twig in your mouth so that it gets scattered and fibers would come out of it. Those fibers will become a natural brush. Now use that fiber end to brush your teeth completely for about 15 to 20 minutes. You can rinse your mouth with fresh water after that. Discard that twig once you are done. Use a new fresh twig next time.

Oil Pulling

Oil Pulling is also an Ayurveda technique to whiten your teeth and achieve overall good oral health. It also removes plaque, bacteria’s and gingivitis to bring back your shining white smile. Oil pulling works the same as mouth wash but more focused on teeth. For oil pulling, you can use Olive oil, Coconut oil, or Sesame oil. Let me explain to you how?
