Yelllow teeth...HELP!

[okasanbear]

Tell me what you know about remineralizing teeth...ds has slightly yellowish teeth probably caused by his asthma meds. I read recently an article..but wasn't thinking about ds at the time so didnt read it carefully, but it was talking about lack of minerals also making your teeth yellowish in color...Anyone know???

I bought a "remineralizing teeth" package from Diane Hopkins, "Love to Learn" (if you google these, you'll find it) which included fish oil, cranberry, and Dynamic Nutritional Minadrex. She also has a low-cost booklet for eating changes to support and maintain the remineralization. Hope you find what you're comfortable with.

Magnesium oil helped my teeth. It's a little salty tasting, but you get used to it.

Baking soda whitens teeth. I had really yellow teeth as a kid too. I have been using baking soda once a day with 3 drops of magnesium oil and they are looking pretty good. I use a non-flouride toothpaste for my 2nd brushing each day because baking soda is pretty abrasive.

We started making our own toothpaste and I feel it has really whitened my teeth. I was having issues with translucency and it helped greatly!

I have a video and recipe on my blog:

I also think maybe Pamela? talked about MSM. Maybe I can find one of her posts or maybe she'll come on later.

HTH!

Great video Trisch. I've used baking soda and hydrogen peroxide a LOT over the years. I love coconut oil and wish I'd known about it back in the day when I was working as a dental assist. I would have recommended this recipe!! You are a natural in front of the camera. :-)

I make my own toothpaste with coconut oil, zeolite (or you can use another gentle, detoxing clay), clove powder, monosodium phosphate, and you can add mint extract if you like, and I mix it very well with magnesium oil. It really cleans the teeth, soothes gums and rebuilds enamel.

Pamela,

Can you give ratios of your ingredients? My DH and DD have this same issue.

Thanks for posting that link, Trisch! I bought all the ingredients a while ago but just haven't taken the time to do it. NOW is the time (before my visitors come next week. :smile

I also use coconut oil, dirt (DE) and wintergreen EO. It remineralized my teeth, got rid of the sensitivity (except once a month during TOM) and they are slowly getting whiter...
