Keeping up appearances, while staying safe!
Don’t know about you, but I’ve been giving my teeth more consideration than before the pandemic, since an unnecessary trip to the dentist doesn’t seem prudent. One thing I hadn’t considered is the obvious...CBD for dental hygiene. According to the CDC half of American adults have periodontal disease. Considering most of my friends are seniors, I imagine that percentage increases.
When a big company like Colegate plans to sell CBD toothpaste and mouthwash, it's certain that h**p is (FINALLY!) moving in the right direction.
Why wait for the dentist, when we can make our own dental care mouthwash?! Here’s a simple recipe; you can also add a tiny amount of CBD oil to any mouthwash that has real plant based essential oils. I would recommend putting a drop of CBD oil in your mouth and then adding the mouthwash, so the oil doesn’t stick to the glass.
🦷 𝗦𝘄𝗲𝗲𝘁-𝗦𝗺𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗢𝗶𝗹 𝗠𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗵 𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀:
• 1 cup of filtered water
• 20 drops of the essential oil of your choice. Best choices are cinnamon, clove, wintergreen, peppermint, ginger, or tea tree oil
𝙄𝙣𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨:
In a glass container with a tight-fitting lid, combine all ingredients and shake well. Put a drop of CBD oil in your mouth, sip mouthwash, swish, gargle and spit!
Always shake well before each use. This mixture will keep on the kitchen counter or bathroom counter forever!
