Dental experts have named five effective home remedies to help reduce the risk of gingivitis and bleeding gums. However, it should be understood that the use of these funds does not at all eliminate the need for regular visits to the dentist.
Thus, the experts noted the following means:
- Pomegranate. The antibacterial properties of pomegranate, identified by scientists, contribute to the effective fight against plaque on the teeth. This fruit is excellent for maintaining a healthy microflora in the oral cavity;
- Oily mouthwash. Rinse your mouth with coconut oil-infused water to help prevent and treat the symptoms of gingivitis;
- Aloe Vera. This plant is rightfully considered one of the most effective and useful means to maintain healthy teeth and gums. This tool has a softening effect and destroys many bacteria that live in the oral cavity;
- Honey. Consuming honey in small amounts is an ideal addition to medical treatments for gingivitis. Honey has pronounced antibacterial properties;
- Salt water. Slightly warm water with added salt prevents the development of bacteria in the mouth. Rinse should be repeated several times a day, while water should be held in the mouth for at least 30 seconds.
