Missed your dentist? Painful teeth? Like to try something new?

Here’s a really basic recipe for homemade toothpaste/tooth polish:

• 1 t baking powder
• 1 t tumeric
• 1 heaped t coconut oil softened or melted
• 10 drops peppermint oil optional
• 5 drops clove oil optional

Mix together in a small container, leaving a spoon or popsicle stick in to scoop out onto your toothbrush.
Try to brush with tooth polish and after rinsing rub teeth and gums with aloe vera. Aloe vera is great for healing cavities.

This simple combo is an antibacterial, anti inflammatory and anti fungal powerful toothpaste. There are lots of other recipes out there, a lot of them have activated charcoal in them too. All these ingredients work together to draw out impurities in our mouth.

In case you were worried, your teeth won't go yellow from the tumeric!

Hope you are all doing well out there.
Really miss all those beautiful tamariki.
