Homemade Charcoal Toothpaste for Teeth Whitening
Oral health is important and we have thousands of brands of toothpaste trying to take care of our teeth. But is it really good for our health? The thing is that, the toothpaste brands all over the world try to use various chemicals to keep their quality intact.
Now, while these chemicals might be good for our teeth, they are hazardous for our body. They can really mess up our system. The toxins present in this toothpaste are sodium lauryl sulfate, triclosan, propylene glycol, diethanolamine, and microbeads. They even contain aspartame, an artificial sweetener that is quite hazardous for our teeth.
So, what is the way out of it?
The best way to deal with this situation is to go down the natural way. There are many products found in nature which can be used to maintain your dental health. And the best part is, we can make it in our own homes. The only things needed are extra-virgin olive oil, eggshell powder, and activated carbon. It doesn’t corrode our teeth and can help in safeguarding our oral health.
Activated carbon is a natural whitener that fights off plaque and helps in maintaining the pH level of our body.
Eggshell powder is full of calcium and helps in strengthening and remineralization of our teeth.
Finally, olive oil helps prevent bad breath, cavities, and maintains our overall oral hygiene.
However, you should consult your dentist if you have dental caps before using this formula.
