Hi Folks,
I've read somewhere that avoiding the use of toothpastes having a high glycerin
content will lead to allowing the enamel to naturally rebuild once again on the
teeth.
Apparently, the glycerin coats the teeth with a film and it takes a
considerable amount of time for the film to dissolve after discontiniuing the
use of the toothpaste. I don't remember just how long...let's say 2 or 3 days
for argument's sake. So, since people are brushing with glycerin-containing
toothpastes every day, the enamel never gets a chance to rebuild..
Some people have used Dr. Bronner's liquid soaps, which do, by the way, contain
a small amount of glycerin due to the production process, but do not have any
added glycerin, which, if of a sufficient enough quantity, would prevent the
rebuilding process of tooth enamel.
Apparently, the amount of glycerin is the issue and when a large enough amount
of glycerin is used on the teeth daily the prevention of enamel rebuilding is
very likely.
Other people have used other soaps containing as little glycerin as they could
find and have reported good results as well.
I am now trying the Dr. Bronners liquid soaps while brushing but must admit
that they do taste fairly awful and do not clean the teeth very well. They can
also make you foam at the mouth like a rabid dog if you use too much. (some
might like that effect)
I think I might've read about all this on Curezone a couple of years ago or so.
regards,
Peter
