Natural Coconut Toothpaste

Why use coconut oil to clean my teeth?
So you already know all about oil pulling and the incredible ways coconut oil can work to detoxify your mouth – but did you know it can also work as a whitening toothpaste!? Say goodbye to the artificial, chemical-laden commercial toothpastes, and start making your own natural toothpaste at home – you’ll even save money in the process!
Because coconut oil is said by some to be packed with amazing antibacterial and antifungal properties, it can help to destroy tooth decay-causing bacteria. Baking soda could help whiten and clean teeth, as well as restore pH balance in your mouth. Because there’s only two completely natural ingredients, you’ll know exactly what’s going onto your teeth!
The mouth is linked to the digestive system, and having poor oral hygiene can lead to other illnesses and health issues. One yeast in particular that enables dental disease is Candida Albicans. This yeast affects not just the mouth but also the digestive system, inhibiting normal digestion. Brushing your teeth with coconut oil could be an effective weapon against Candida Albicans due to its potential antifungal properties!
Natural Toothpaste
This homemade toothpaste only has three ingredients: coconut oil, baking soda, and peppermint oil! Peppermint oil is a completely natural essential oil, which provides a cooling sensation and natural fresh flavouring that help freshen bad breath. It also helps your homemade toothpaste taste more like the minty toothpaste you’re used to – in a completely natural incarnation, of course!
You can also use this natural toothpaste for your dogs too! – Coconut oil is just as great for your dog’s health as it is ours!
What you’ll need:
– 2 tablespoons coconut oil
– 2 tablespoons baking soda
– 10 drops peppermint oil
Let’s get started!
– In a small container, mix your baking soda and coconut oil until it reaches a paste-like consistency.
– Add several drops of peppermint oil and mix in.
– Brush those pearly whites!
