I use Living Clay with a little peppermint oil added and have for 3 years. Story...I have had gum etc issues for years but I HATE going to the dentist . I was having a tooth issue earlier this year and decided to just get a cleaning which I think all of that scraping thins the enamel. She asked how long since I had a cleaning...I said geesh 15 years or so. then she asked if we could do it in 2 setting since she was sure she could not get everything done in one. OK. About 10 min. into the procedure she stepped back and looked at me and said my gums and teeth look very good and she couldn't understand it. End of cleaning but I did have a cavity in the back of my back tooth which was causing the discomfort.

We should all be brushing our teeth with something.. even bar soap that does not contain glycerine, flouride or artificial flavors/colors/ingredients etc. There are quite a few natural soaps without glycerine. The glycerine retards the reenameling of the teeth.http://100777.com/health/teethcare I haven't used commercial toothpastes in years. I use baking soda or miracle soap or Tooth Chips from Rose of Sharon Acres... Their website has some good information also. http://roseofsharonacres.com/tooth_chips___soap_for_teeth?gclid=CNWBjLzBlboCFU1k7AodL38AYQ Lola H. On Mon, Oct 14, 2013 at 12:11 AM, A.

But what do I recommend to a friend, who can't get the original Ivory? I'm currently living in Kenya, and wonder whether there's a product that's widely available, and otherwise I could purchase this in the U.S., several months from now when I visit. And by the way, what deleterious effects would there be, when brushing with ordinary soap? Reid
