That is what I do- I oil pull with coconut oil first thing in the AM for 20 minutes, then spit it out. My teeth and gums are very good/clean as a result.

"Oil-pulling"? What is that? Just swilling in the mouth and spitting it out? I wouldn't mind trying that except that I have food-intolerance issues with coconut-oil so would be afraid of swallowing it inadvertently. Any suggestions of any other raw substances I might use?

    Everyone I've spoken to about it does it about twenty minutes.  Many use organic cold pressed sesame oil, but others use canola, olive Oil, safflower, sesame, sunflower or walnut.

    Apparently it's supposed to help cure a lot of ills.  See this article in the Hindu Business Line online edition: http://tinyurl.com/2ccvln

    I tried it a couple of times.  I don't have a lot of experience with it.

Hi there, I use dental blotting and oil pulling- no toothpaste, brushing or flossing.

Hi Elainie,

Would you be willing to describe dental blotting for the forum?  I like the oil pulling idea and will incorporate that into my daily routine.  I floss because some of my teeth are very close together and food stuff sometimes get in between.   

Juicy Dan!

my toddler brushes his teeth once a while with just raw grass fed organic butter. i see his teeth shines right away. i'm too lazy to do that. i know about oil pulling and this is so time consuming... i heard that's really helpful for gums and teeth.

i hear that if you use organic strawberries to brush your teeth, that makes teeth whiter. in my country i never know any yellow tooth. i find this yellow teeth hear. every other people have this yellow teeth issue here and dentists are making tons of money.

I'm not trying to steal the focus but what do those old farts (66) like me do to paleologically clean their dentures.  I had a very serious calcium absorption problem growing up and lost my teeth the time I was in my very early twenties.  They just crumpled in my mouth. 

There must be a better, safer way to clean/brush dentures than using Efferdent or like products.

Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance for any usable advice.

    Fine clay would probably help.

Some of us on raw zero carb have noticed that out teeth stay white and clean without brushing, same as our fellow carnivores.
Proof that the primal diet is not paleo.
