Discover this non-toxic Essential oil DIY toothpaste
This essential oil DIY toothpaste is my favourite dental care product.
I always try to use products that are non-toxic and easy DIY. Eliminating toxic chemicals was a huge part of my health recovery and I love sharing these recipes with you.
Essential oils for this natural DIY toothpaste
Peppermint, Tea Tree, lemon drops, cinnamon and clove (mix the essential oils you want to use before mixing in the carrier oil, as this improves the synergy of the oils).
Natural toothpaste ingredients:
- 3 tbsp baking soda
- 1 or 2 tsp finely ground Himalayan pink salt
- Add a few of your favourite organic essential oils
Optional ingredients for this natural toothpaste:
Charcoal or organic neem oil. Despite its pungent smell neem oil has incredible healing and cleansing properties, making it ideal for oral hygiene. Just remember to use it sparingly!
Mouthwashes containing Neem
According to studies, neem makes a great addition to natural mouthwashes as it helps inhibit the growth of bacteria in the mouth, which could reduce the risk of gum disease. Another study revealed that neem mouthwashes can reduce plaque and gingivitis. Dr Linda Page, the author of the book Healthy Healing, also states that neem oil is commonly added to natural toothpaste as a purifier and as an antimicrobial agent that helps prevent dental diseases.
Drugs.com also reaffirms that neem twigs and neem oil may effectively lower the count of microorganisms responsible for dental diseases.
Method for this DIY essential oil toothpaste oil
- Mix baking soda, salt, and (optional) charcoal powder.
- Add coconut oil and (optional) neem oil and mix until it becomes a slightly thick paste.
- Add your chosen essential oils. I usually add ten drops of Tea Tree and 10 drops of peppermint and 6 drops of lemon and clove oil. (but this really depends on your tastes. Experiment with the flavour until you find one that’s right for you) First mix essential oils together before adding to the paste.
