- Every morning on an empty stomach, take one tablespoon of coconut oil and gently circulate it in your mouth for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Then spit into a trash can ( not the sink , to avoid clogging) and rinse your mouth with clean water. All without rubbing or forcing. This technique is called oil pulling .
The result: fresher breath, a feeling of cleanliness… and, over time, a slightly brighter smile!
Eggshell powder: an amazing mineral ally
Instructions for use:
- Boil the eggshells for a few minutes to sterilize them, dry them, and then blend them until you get an ultra-fine powder.
- Then mix half a teaspoon of this powder with some coconut oil or a few drops of water.
- Apply to a soft toothbrush and brush gently for one minute.
Please note: This method is not a substitute for professional care. Be sure to reduce the shells to a very fine powder to avoid excessive abrasion.
The result: a feeling of cleanliness and a slightly revitalized smile without damaging the tooth enamel.
