Non-Aggressive Dental Treatments

Tootache pain may start suddenly. At first, there is discomfort when cold or hot beverages are consumed or we may feel pain in the jaw area. Although there aren't any known naturopathic treatments that will repair broken or rotten teeth, there are always temporary fixes to alleviate the pain, swelling and infections.

Research has reported that tooth decay may be caused as a result of improper nutrition and nutrient deficiencies in the body.

On the onset of tooth pain it is recommended to rinse with salt water or baking soda a few times. The salt water cleanses the area, and may prevent infection from developing. Olive oil or coconut oil may be used with oil pulling techniques.

It requires ingesting the oils, swishing it in the mouth for a few minutes and then expelling the oil . A small poultice of crushed onions or garlic may be placed in a muslin cloth and placed directly on the tooth or gums where the pain exists.

Vanilla extract and clove oil will provide quick relief if one is on the go and needs immediate help.

Oregano oil and oral calcium will prevent infection, neutralize pain and promote healing. Golden Seal and Echinace will eliminate bacteria and prevent abscesses or infection from developing.

While in the throes of a toothache, refrain from consuming processed or sugar filled foods. Even sweet fruit has the tendency to aggravate the situation.

The Aloe Vera drink provides tremendous health benefits when it comes to healing tooth decay and dental health. It is said to stop tooth decay in its tracks, and it quells inflamed gums and infections.

Other preventative measures which may be taken are, maintining a healthy diet, consuming raw foods, organic dairy products, kelp and seafood.
