Natural Tooth Powder

Natural Tooth Powder Recipe

1/4 cup baking soda
5 drops Peppermint Young Living Essential Oil
5 drops pure Myrrh Young Living Essential Oil
5-10 drops of Thieves Young Living Essential Oil

Mix all ingredients in a small glass jar with a lid, cover, and shake well to disperse oils throughout. (Oils can be one or all three or a mix of them. You can also get Young Living Thieves AromaBright Toothpaste 3039 all mixed.)

When ready to brush put a small amount on your wet toothbrush. It will taste a bit salty because of the soda. After brushing, your mouth will have the peppermint taste for a long time. The freshness holds much longer than with other pastes.

When using Young Living Essential Oils, you get the benefits of the Living oils.

Peppermint helps freshen breath, kill bacteria, and clear sinuses. The myrrh oil is highly antibacterial and anti-fungal so good for the gums too.

Myrrh has been used for centuries for healing. It is noted in the bible in several locations.

Baking soda restores a natural, slightly alkaline pH balance to the teeth and gums and helps to whiten teeth. In addition, baking soda is good for your gut. It is the same pH as what your gut should be, so if you suffer from acid reflux this will, in a small way help, AND it is not bad to swallow any of this powder. All the ingredients are okay to ingest.

These two oils are good for many applications, this would just be one. So get your two bottles ordered today!
