After coming back from seeing the dentist and hygienist who I haven’t been to see since 2009! I was feeling quite smug with myself at being told I had lovely teeth and they were very clean and naturally white. They asked what I used and looked most perplexed when I said I oiled pulled and used bicarbonate of soda paste with some herbs and essential oils.

So I thought I’d share this with you so you can have a go and see if you like it. No £300 odd whitening teeth costs thank you very much.

Ingredients needed

2 tablespoons bicarbonate of soda
1 tablespoon dried oregano or sage
1 teaspoons fine sea salt
10-15 drops peppermint, cinnamon or clove essential oil

Mix the dry ingredients together in bowl or small container and add the essential oil. Make up a batch and store in a jar or bowl in your bathroom. Just dip a wet toothbrush into the mixture every time you want to freshen and whiten your teeth. Lovely. Smile
