FAQ:
Q: Can this remedy actually reverse cavities?
A: While this natural mix may help remineralize early enamel damage and reduce bacteria, it cannot "cure" cavities that have penetrated deep into the tooth. Always consult a dentist for treatment.
Q: Is it safe for children?
A: Some essential oils are not recommended for young children. Consult a pediatric dentist before use on kids under 12.
Q: How often should I use it?
A: Use it once daily, preferably at night. Alternate with fluoride toothpaste if recommended by your dentist.
Q: Will this help with bad breath?
A: Yes! The coconut oil, clove, and peppermint help neutralize odor-causing bacteria and freshen your breath naturally.
