Most people aren’t aware but good oral hygiene is SO important to our health. I’m sure you’ve heard that your stomach is your second brain, it can contribute to many health issues. Our oral health should never be put on the back burner.
When you take good care of your mouth, it does more than give you a whiter and brighter smile but, it also can improve your overall health by reducing your risks of serious diseases. You can find more info here.
For my fellow heart warriors oral health is even more important, as we are much more likely to develop endocarditis a very serious infection of the heart valves that can be fatal. Speak to your cardiologist to make sure you are taking the right precautions, like taking antibiotics before any dental work, including cleanings.
If your looking for essential oils or other natural options for your oral health then you’ve came to the right place. Here’s a list of the best essential oils for oral care. I won’t be reinventing the wheel here so if you’d like the in depth info on these oils, you can find them here. (FYI: doTERRA’s blog has TONS of information, it makes my research loving heart happy)
- Cinnamon Bark Oil
- Peppermint Beadlets
- Spearmint Oil
- Peppermint Oil
- Clove Oil- revered for its antiseptic and numbing properties this oil has been used for hundreds of years to relieve tooth discomfort and during dental procedures.
- On Guard Mouth Wash
- On Guard Toothpaste
Y’all before I tell you about how excited I am for dōTERRA’s new reformulated On Guard Toothpaste I wanted to tell you about my gadgets. Not all toothbrushes are created equally, because of my need for immaculate dental care I splurged on an Oral B electric toothbrush from my dentist. My teeth have never felt cleaner, it’s like that just left the dentist clean everyday.
Another product I use daily is my water pic flosser (I am not an affiliate of either of these products, I just love them and want to share) anyways, the water pic is great. I love adding my On Guard mouth wash to it for an even deeper clean – that tip is from my dental hygienist.
{Make sure to clean and rinse your flosser out after using any mouth wash to prevent any junk or stickiness}
