Melanie, I agree that oral health is VERY important. In addition to cleaning teeth well & getting rid of plaque, etc, it is also important to use toothpaste that doesn't have toxic stuff in it like flouride, sodium laryl sulfate. Safely removing root canals & mercury fillings are additional good supports.

I checked out your Amazon ad. What is it that you find so great about it besides that it feels good?

I agree about the toothpaste. I only found one that doesn't have something nasty in it and it's so expensive. So now I make my own and it works even better than any of the commercially prepared ones I've used. It makes my teeth feel so fresh and clean!
Toothpaste recipe:
Thoroughly mix 3 parts baking soda with 1 part salt
To each half cup of homemade powder, add 3 teaspoons of glycerin, 10-20 drops of flavoring (peppermint, wintergreen, anise, cinnamon or whatever)
Mix the ingredients thoroughly in a bowl and add just enough water to make the concoction "tooth-pastey". Spoon the substance into a small refillable plastic squeeze bottle or any container that dispenses easily and won't leak.
VoilÁ! Toothpaste!

Hello Michalene, I like it because it is quick and convenient to use. With my old water pic I always had to haul it out and plug it in. I am amazed that this could be so simple. And it get's the green stuff out from between my teeth! lol. I agree with your comment about using natural toothpaste and getting rid of the mercury. I have been using plain baking soda for awhile now.

Kids I have to confess, my oral health was horrible.. I just hate going and put it off for sooooooooooooo long that I just endured a deep cleaning and OUCH it hurt and let's just say.. there WAS Blood, lots of it, cannot be good for my WBC!!!
Now I am flossing like a fool and brushing correctly and there is NO more blood... finally!
Took me a while to get this good result but it was worth it.
PLEASE don't neglect your teeth and gums like I did, maybe it contributed to my 'bad blood', I will see how I do at the onc in July.
love deb
PS Mel , i will check this thing out!

The doctors which performed open heart surgery on my younger sister think that she caught a virus (which attacked a weak spot of her heart) from poor dental hygiene after getting braces fitted. I remember at the time that she had a real adversion to cleaning her teeth.
Therefore, I totally agree oral health is VERY important!
