Key Ingredients & Benefits:
- Fractionated Coconut Oil: A lightweight, liquid carrier oil that ensures smooth oil pulling and easy application. Rich in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) like caprylic and capric acids, it offers antimicrobial properties to combat oral bacteria, supporting gum health.
- Virgin Coconut Oil: Packed with ~45-50% lauric acid, a potent antimicrobial, this oil helps reduce plaque and gingival inflammation, as supported by studies like those in the Nigerian Medical Journal (2015). It promotes a cleaner mouth and stronger gums.
- Tea Tree Oil: Known for its powerful antibacterial and antifungal properties, it targets plaque-causing bacteria and supports gum health by reducing inflammation.
- Peppermint Oil: Delivers a cooling, refreshing sensation while providing antimicrobial action to freshen breath and cleanse the mouth.
- Spearmint Oil: Offers a milder minty flavor, enhancing breath freshness and contributing gentle antibacterial effects for a balanced oral environment.
- Lemon Oil: A natural antiseptic that brightens the mouth and helps combat oral pathogens, promoting a clean and healthy gum line.
- Eucalyptus Oil: Anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial, it soothes gums and supports a healthy oral microbiome, reducing irritation.
- Clove Bud Oil: Renowned for its pain-relieving and antibacterial properties, it helps alleviate gum discomfort and fights oral bacteria.
- Lavender Oil: Calms and soothes irritated gums, promoting tissue healing and a balanced oral environment.
- Myrrh Oil: Traditionally used for gum health, it strengthens gum tissue and provides antimicrobial support to reduce inflammation.
- Cinnamon Oil: A potent antibacterial that enhances the blend’s ability to combat plaque and bacteria, used sparingly for safety and efficacy.
- Cypress Oil: Acts as an astringent, helping to tighten gums and promote oral tissue health.
- Vitamin E: An antioxidant that supports gum tissue repair and extends shelf life by preventing oil oxidation, ensuring long-lasting potency.
Usage Instructions:
- For Oil Pulling:
- Use 1-2 teaspoons (5-10 ml) of the Oral Health Oil Pulling Blend.
- Swish gently in your mouth for 10-15 minutes, ensuring the oil reaches all areas. If the blend is semi-solid in cooler conditions, let it melt in your mouth before swishing.
- IMPORTANT: Spit into a trash can to avoid clogging drains.
- Rinse your mouth with water and brush your teeth afterward.
- Use once daily, ideally in the morning before eating, for best results.
- For Direct Gum Application:
- Place 1-2 drops on a clean finger or cotton swab.
- Gently massage into gums, focusing on areas of concern, twice daily after brushing.
- Do not rinse immediately to allow the oils to absorb.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dark place to maintain potency. The amber glass bottle protects the blend from light degradation. Shelf life is approximately 12 months. If the blend thickens in cooler temperatures, warm gently in a water bath before use.
Safety Note: Always spit out after oil pulling; do not swallow. Consult a healthcare professional if you have sensitivities or are pregnant, nursing, or have medical conditions. Keep out of reach of children.
