how to cope or prevent cavities
hi steemians, good night wherever you are this time i want to share tips to keep your teeth healthy and not hollow.
What if you happen to get cavities? Going to the dentist to patch may be a good idea, depending on how bad the cavities are. Holes on untreated teeth can get worse, with infections that will dig deeper into the nerves, and cause permanent damage. There are some natural remedies, however, patching must be done, or at least may help to stop the infection.
Oregano oil: Some people have had success with this natural antiseptic on tooth decay. A 2008 study found that the compounds found in oregano have potent antimicrobial properties.
Anti-bacterial substances: Try toothpaste formulated for cavities, rinse, wipe and spray several times a day. Formulas in toothpaste or mouthwash can stop bacteria in the mouth from acids that cause tooth decay and cavities, and make bacteria more difficult to find shelter on gums and teeth.
Clove Oil: This is a natural remedy used to treat toothache. Add one or two drops of clove oil to the tooth.
Sage: Sage has antibacterial properties that can cure tooth decay. Boil sage in water, cold, and use as mouthwash.
Neem: Brushing with neem stems or chewing leaves or seeds has long been considered the best way to destroy the cavity-causing bacteria. A 1996 study found that neem stems can slow plaque formation.
