It has been recorded back in the 14th century in Chinese, that Baking soda was used as a mouthwash and treatment for gum diseases. Before that, baking soda was known primarily as a cleaning agent. It was introduced to Americans by the English and has been used in Europe since the 18th century, so this is not new. By the way, did you know that most whitening Toothpaste or mouthwash contain baking soda? yes, they do.
How to Use: place a one to one portion of the baking
soda onto your toothbrush with your usual toothpaste and brush your teeth as
usual.
Tips
If you brush your teeth twice a day, limit the use of baking
soda to not more than once a day. Excessive use of baking soda could make your
gum sensitive.
Be aware that Baking soda does not have anti-bacterial
effect and as such can not protect your teeth or gum from bacterial infection (cavity
or caries).
