Sanguinaria-Mint Mouthwash: AJ
Sanguinaria/Mint/Myrrh herbs
All Natural
Kills Plaque
No Preservatives
Prevents Gingivitis
No Additives
Maintains healthy teeth and gums
Daily brushing and flossing of the teeth is not enough to keep our teeth healthy. And metal fillings contain poisonous mercury. And dental bills can be devastating to those of us living a simple, separated life.
We tried everything from flouride drops to mouthwashing with a smelly purple gel to brushing our teeth with baking soda and salt. We tried flossing, mouthwashing with hydrogen peroxide, and spraying the teeth with an electric water irrigator. None of these procedures stopped the onslaught of tooth decay.
The Solution
Over the years, we have found the daily use of a Sanguinaria-based mouthwash is the easiest, least expensive way to maintain healthy teeth and gums. Sanguinaria root, also called Bloodroot, is a proven plaque-killing herb.
This powerful herb WAS the active ingredient in Viadent mouthwash.
A few years ago, Viadent was purchased by Colgate-Palmolive Company. Sanguinaria root is no longer an active ingredient in their mouthwash, even though it is still listed as an extract on the label. All our family's teeth started deteriorating again using their new formula. We quit using Viadent and formulated our own mouthwash. We now use a no fluoride toothpaste and then rinse the mouth with Sanguinaria-Mint Mouthwash.
Sanguinaria-Mint Mouthwash
This mouthwash is quick to prepare once you have assembled the ingredients. Ready to use in two weeks. Our family has proved its effectiveness in preventing plaque buildup. There are no harmful additives. The mint freshens breath. We add myrrh because it is wonderfully healing for mouth sores. It does taste somewhat bitter, but adding sweetener would defeat its purpose.
YIELD: One 30-ounce bottle (3-3/4 cups)
3 Tablespoons dried Spearmint leaves
1 Tablespoon Myrrh (pea size pieces)(optional)
1/2 ounce of Sanguinaria root (Bloodroot) or about 1 rounded Tablespoon of root pieces
1-1/2 cups of Vodka
Step 1
1 Break up Sanguinaria root into small pieces (1/2 to 1 inch).
2 Put all ingredients in a glass quart jar with a tight-fitting lid.
3 Close lid tightly and shake vigorously.
4 Label and date jar.
5 Leave at room temperature for two weeks, shaking contents once a day.
Step 2
6 After mouthwash has set for 2 weeks, strain into a quart measuring pitcher or wide-mouth jar. Strain through several layers of cheesecloth or an old, clean pillowcase.
7 Wring and squeeze any remaining liquid into pitcher, being careful not to allow herb particles into the pitcher.
8 Ten drops of mint oil extract may be added to mouthwash for a stronger mint flavor.
9 Add 2-1/4 cups water to make 3-3/4 cups (30 ounces).
Using Mouthwash
Store mouthwash in bottle with tight-fitting lid. We use an old mouthwash bottle. Rinse mouth daily with 1 to 2 tablespoons of mouthwash, swirl in mouth for at least 1 minute, then spit out. Avoid eating or drinking for at least 30 minutes after mouthwashing.
Abscessed Teeth
If a tooth abscesses, hold mouthwash in the mouth for several minutes every hour throughout the day. We know of abscesses healing after three days using this method. Mouthwash also helps relieve the pain as the tooth heals.
