I’ve only used baking soda to brush my teeth. My hygienist was shocked at the condition of my teeth and gums since I haven’t been to the dentist in the last couple of years. Gums are great and teeth look and feel even better!
Like the good ol’days and I’m a dentist, we used to use baking soda, salt, warm water, and it worked sometimes hydrogen peroxide to whiten up your teeth that works as well
Thank you Dr..my dentist told me she had a patient that never had a cavity and still had his original teeth and he was 80 years old.. all he ever used was baking soda and peroxide...
My dad used it sixty years ago. He never had cavities until he stopped using pure dry baking soda on a dampened brush. He traded it for toothpaste and started getting cavities. I did the opposite. Used toothpaste till I lost a bunch of teeth, started using baking soda about ten years ago and have not had tooth problems since.
Coconut oil + salt. Oil pull 10-20 mins. Whitens, cleans, heals, restores. Floss first to make sure that the oil has access to all of your teeth. And your teeth will love you! (Ps- spit it out in the trash. That will keep the oil from clogging your pipes. Here's an extra benefit. Oil pulling also cleans out your sinuses)
@Recuerdos I don't brush. I use water. I swish vigorously to loosen debree and spit. Then, I floss for debree that the water missed. Next, I use oil and salt(I use pink Himalayan salt). I do this once to twice a day depending on meal or sugar intake(no brushing for me). However, I am very weird. I believe fimgernails are a useful tool that people ignore. Look at the curvature of dental tools. They resemble fingernails. I use my fingernails for scraping my teeth with more dexterity than any tool. Nails can be used to exfoliate your skin. They do a better job than most scrubbers. Nails can also be used to clip or prune veggies in the garden. If you do any QiGong or acupressure, your nails can go deeper into your stiff muscles and release tension. I don't use toothpaste. I don't use deodorant. I stank for about a year, but after that, I quit stinking. I can work all day and not stink an ounce. Deodorant blocks your lymph nodes and causes cancer. I do not use commercial soaps. I use common ivy or english ivy to make my own soaps. I sleep on the floor, not a bed. Beds and chairs make my back hurt something ferocious. Sleeping on the floor hurts at first because your muscles are used to certain positions and have to be retrained. I practice OMAD - one meal a day 16 to 20 hours without eating to place myself into an intermittent fast(this helps fight cancer). THIS helps so many things. You will use the restroom less. If your 4 hour window of eating is before 6 pm, you will have less urination throughout the night. Eating late spikes insulin, which increases urine output. You will defecate once or twice around the same time period every day. As I said. I am a very weird person because I do not believe that what capitalism is selling or pushing or teaching the next generation. I firmly believe that people are nutrient deficient on many levels partly due to the poor soil in industrialized farming. And also due to people's poor diets.
Not completely sure on the oil pulling addendum to cleaning teeth. I don’t think it’s necessary just like charcoal toothpaste too abrasive. Now oil pulling isn’t too abrasive. I just don’t think it’s necessary to clean your mouth. You can get the same affect with toothbrush, and no toothpaste or anything just some mechanical action against the tooth surface that removes the plaque all you need and fl- in there to protect the teeth.
Great video I’ve been using pink salt for over 15 years and have not needed to go the dentist since I’ve been using it. Normal toothpaste is toxic plus it causes decay and cavities by design.
a cool old school method, I love it. another interesting way is bentonite clay tooth paste. no junk in it. no fluoride, no microplastics, no artificial chemicals. straight nature.
I think that everyone has learned that from their parents. But thanks for the ones who may not know about the baking soda cleaning. It literally cleans everything especially with vinegar added you can even scrub pots and pans with it cleans your tub rings everything... Doc you are the best! ❤
Hey! I love your whole channel and I've been sharing your videos with my friends and family for so long. I really appreciate you and your videos, you have made a huge impact on our lives! I was wondering, as I'm currently struggling with my enamel being damaged and I'm trying to repair it, if you have any tips for repairing enamel? The edges of my teeth have been becoming a little transparent, and I have a lot of pain in my teeth themselves in certain areas that the has enamel dissolved in most. This pain also ends up radiating into my roots since my enamel is so damaged. It's really painful and hasn't gotten better since I've been using sensodyne toothpaste.
Well needed information. I have used baking soda as a deodorant growing up. I still use it today. If I think I’m gonna get nervous the purse by I add baking soda to my deodorant for my security thank you doctor.❤
Does baking soda take off your enamel with prolonged daily use. Having used this daily for a few months made my teeth very very sensitive to hot and cold. Once or twice a week is better. What do you think?
Brush with a small amount of baking soda on brush then bite into a lemon wedge and brush through the bubbles. It's way more effective removes even more. And the pith of the lemon skin. (the white bit) removes stains and plaque on your teeth as well. You can rub with that everyday.
Baking Soda is abrasive. It can wear down the layer of enamel, making the dentin (the yellow inside ot he the tooth) show through making your teeth look more yellow if used daily. It can also irritate the gums, causing inflammation and making the gums swell and pull away from the tooth, allowing bacteria to get to the root, anf cause pockets and eventually bone loss. I would rather use strips, once a yr. But if you're going to use Baking soda, I would limit it to a light brushing once a week and avoid the gums. No one needs to whiten their gums. Also add an enamel strengthening toothpaste to remineralize the teeth, to help offset yellowing and the wearing down of the enamel.
My dentist called it a heavy abrasive, which made me stop. I should have looked it up because heavy abrasions on the teeth from baking soda would be easy to measure.
My Granny too, how wild! I thought I was the only one that actually did this method and I actually put toothpaste on my Oral B electric toothbrush, then baking soda on top of that and I’ll either do it that way more so oftentimes, but sometimes after brushing with the toothpaste and baking soda, I’ll rinse brush off and then start over with just baking soda and peroxide on top of that and I will brush my teeth once more with that and it works wonders!! 🎊
Your teeth will love you until they fall out. Baking soda is very abrasive. Frequent use (as recommended here, "several times a week") will weaken the enamel, leading to worse staining, decay, and failure. Don't let that happen to your teeth. Occasional use of a very small amount of baking soda (maybe once a month!) is enough. Instead of baking soda, try turmeric.

I use it like seasoning, you may not need a lot of black pepper, but a lil goes a long way, and dilute it in coconut oil or water. I did it with my underarms which usually would swell up with baking soda, but a bit,diluted, ain’t cause no harm
@@jasirahsayyad8499 but you're still destroying your enamel, just more slowly than you otherwise would. Why not use products with peroxide which can whiten without destroying enamel? Why destroy your enamel at all, even slowly? Your approach doesn't make any sense to me unless you just don't care about losing your enamel (and eventually your teeth). That's just weird.
@@johnny07652 alright now, Johnny boy, to each his own, and just to use your knowledge against you a bit, when toothpaste bought from stores, utilize baking soda or hydrogen peroxide, which can be harsh when used alone or for a long period of time,within their formula with the addition of other ingredients, is that not a paradigm of dilution, and in your case wouldn’t it be better to avoid it all together, given your abrasive stance?

My dad would use baking soda when we ran out of tooth paste..now my household only uses baking soda tooth paste!💯👏🏾
Thee BEST!
@P Jeffery that’s because there’s other ingredients in the toothpaste itself, but baking soda won’t do that
@P Jeffery just use baking soda mix with a little hydrogen peroxide. Super clean teeth.
Not very good to use every day though, not very good for enamel, will wear it off eventually
@@LJolie-jz8go Not a chance. Only acid can break down enamel. Baking soda is an alkaline.

Baking Soda dampened with Hydrogen Peroxide works better, but don't use everyday.
I've heard bad things about using that. I have not tried it
@@BarbieBabeEve Been using it about twice a week for 20 years and my dentist says my teeth are fine.
@@hawkjim2000 Well thank you for the feedback. I was wondering about that because I thought it could remove the Enamel I guess in moderation
@@cstickles it can. This guy that makes the vid is a chiropractor lol. He just pretends to be a real doc for views. Hes dum.b af and careless.
Very interesting. Will have to test this out.
I use non-aluminum baking soda.
Be gentle with the scrubbing.
You can also add a little coconut
oil to decrease the abrasiveness
but add to the cleansing & natural whitening..💙🌍
Amazing comments! Thank you doctor! As always very grateful!

Been doing this since a I was a kid. Got it from my Grandma. Glad to hear it actually works.
How many times u brushes with baking soda in a week?

I don't like the taste of baking soda so I add a drop of eucalyptus essential oil (or clove) and a bit more water. It adds additional benefits.
Yeah it taste foul

“And your teeth will love you” 💕😁
This is very old knowledge. My parents and grandparents used this as toothpaste didnt exist or was expensive and unnecessary.
As children we used charcoal to brush our teeth. 😅

I and many others have realised and experienced that baking soda disintegrates gums, ultimately loosening teeth and teeth falling out.
That may just be for people who are allergic to it or corn...which is in baking soda.
I use it and have never had that problem and my teeth are whiter because of it:)
I used organic fluoride free toothpaste, occasionally I will use baking soda, thanks Dr make it a great day 😀

Not arm & hammer! That’s ☠️. Try Red Mills. Much safer
I like mixing it with Olive Oil to brush :)

Brush with a small amount of baking soda on brush then bite into a lemon wedge and brush through the bubbles. It's way more effective removes even more. And the pith of the lemon skin. (the white bit) removes stains and plaque on your teeth as well. You can rub with that everyday.
Never brush teeth after having anything with lemon. The acid softens your enamel and you will be brushing it away.
No no no!!!!! Lemon is acidic and will rot and break down your enamel faster then you can blink.
Avoid the brand arm and hammer as it contains lots of heavy metals
We use that when we were kids always.
Thanks from my❤ but what is water brush?
Use once or twice a month.
I always used baking soda to brush my teeth I thought it was bad for my teeth

Ofc they would say that because they want you to let them whiten them teeth
