did your teeth get whiter

[@jennyw.2693]

I've tried oil pulling, too, but the flushing around felt too exhaustive after a while. Nowadays I brush my teeth every now and then with turmeric and coconut oil made to a paste. I find it to be less harsh than charcoal powder and more effective than oil pulling. It doesn't whiten your teeth dramatically like artificial teeth whitening products, but it cleanses them off from stains, which in my opinion makes them naturally "white".

[@Happyhippy70]

I have been using coconut oil for two weeks. I even drink it it in hot water. My skin feels amazing. My teeth have whitened. I had dry patches along my jaw line on my face. Really dry and no lotion ever made it go away. One treatment and completely gone. I also dice up raw Ginger and tumeric, tsp of eat. Swallowing with water. It helps regulate blood sugar, cholesterol, it took away my neuropathy. God gave us everything. Thank you mother earth 💞

[@Msapril453]

I've been oil pulling on and off for about 4 years now. What really made me a believer is I went to the dentist and they wanted to pull one of my wisdom teeth because I had a cavity but I refused and told them I would make an appointment in the near future to have the procedure done. I came home and started oil pulling right away and kept doing it consistently for about a month. I then went back to the dentist and they wanted to know where the cavity went lol they were amazed and so was I

I’ve been oil pulling for a few months now and it definitely works for making teeth and gums healthier.

[@iuinshine5213]

Unbelievable!!!! You did all the things I had tried before for self improvement 😂😂😂 😄 Oil pulling helped me with my gums a lot. My gums tend to bleed easily but after using coconut oil they haven't. As for the whitening effect, I saw difference after a month. But it wasn't as big as after using a whitening strip. I have stopped oil pulling because I just got lazy .... you really should it make it into a habit. After not using for few times I just forgot 😅😐 Tina could you please make a video about fine lines 🙈 I have tried some Korean and Japanese massages for my sleep mark on my face 😅 I tend to sleep on one side and even after trying different sleeping methods or using a silk pillow... I still can't break that sleeping habit and cant get rid of that sleeping mark. If you have a any advice I would really appreciate it 🙇‍♀️ 😊 Also thank you so much for all your videos!!! Every video is really informative and on point. You are one of few KZbinrs whose videos seem to be honest. All your views, including me, really appreciate your honesty!!! Thank you for everything ❤❤❤🌻🌻🌻

[@TinaTomato]

Haha it's always fun to try different things! Great minds think alike 😉 I'm so glad oil-pulling helped you with your gum problems. I haven't looked into sleeping posture and such, but in my latest video I talked about ta device that help to reduce fine lines. Maybe it will help! There are also those orthopedic pillows that might help? I've tried one, but I just prefer regular pillows lol. And thank you so much for your support iu, it really makes my day! 🥰

[@judyfarrar1285]

An anecdote for you to ponder...which has to do with olive oil and my 10 year old cat...I have 3 cats of the same age and naturally all cats as they age their teeth get discolored and gums not as healthy. However one of my cats is addicted to olive oil and I have been giving her small amounts multiple times a day which is ok with her veterinarian. At her checkup the vet was amazed that her teeth are as white and clean and gums as healthy as a kittens!. So here is at least evidence that it does work to clean tooth enamel of plaque and promote healthy gums in a cat, whose tissues and teeth are very much the same as ours.

I’m giving up whitening strips. Between that and grinding my teeth in my sleep, my enamel is starting to wear away. I have small teeth as is, I can’t let them disintegrate 😅 think I’ll opt for charcoal toothpastes or something

[@TinaTomato]

Charcoal toothpastes sounds interesting! Have you looked into mouthguards for sleeping to prevent teeth grinding?

[@ayeeangie21]

Tina Tomato I have! I just need to sort out all the options out there bc there are a lot. Some are super expensive while others are cheap. My instinct is to go for the cheap ones of course but I don’t want to damage my teeth in the process so I have to really think through this 😁

[@simonsaysism]

be careful with charcoal for your teeth. it's a very fine powder and it might seem gentle, but with repeated use it's like sandpaper that wears away enamel. experts tend to agree that its risks outweigh its benefits.

[@Jess-Rabbit]

@@ayeeangie21 as someone who also uses a nightguard as advised by my dentist, I would definitely go with the expensive option. I got one custom made for me by the dentists lab and was able to do a payment plan for it since I didnt want to pay $300 dollars right off the bat. Also, I heard that the cheap ones can be ill fitting, causing possible gum and TMJ issues.

@@TinaTomato I haven't seen much benefit from oil pulling either since I've last commented but recently I've tried r/nopoo. Been 3 weeks since I've shampooed and it's going pretty good so far tbh. Maybe look into that if you think it might interest you (since you seem willing to try things). Although I will say you should have a healthy diet if you're going to start since bad food causes unwelcomed smell and grease
