How to Make a Dental Tonic at Home

Oral hygiene is essential for overall health, and while store-bought mouthwashes are effective, you can also make a natural dental tonic at home. In this video, we'll guide you through the steps to create your own dental tonic using simple ingredients.

Disclaimer:
Always consult with your dentist before using any homemade dental products. These remedies are not a substitute for professional dental care.

First, Gather Your Ingredients.
You'll need:

1 cup of distilled water
2 teaspoons of baking soda
2 drops of tea tree oil
2 drops of peppermint essential oil
Second, Mix the Ingredients.
In a clean bottle or jar, pour the distilled water. Add the baking soda and mix until it's fully dissolved. Baking soda acts as a gentle abrasive, helping to clean teeth and neutralize acids.

Third, Add the Essential Oils.
Drop in the tea tree oil and peppermint essential oil. Tea tree oil has antibacterial properties, while peppermint oil gives a refreshing taste and helps combat bad breath.

Fourth, Shake Well Before Use.
Ensure you shake the bottle before each use to mix the ingredients properly.

Fifth, Usage.
Swish the tonic in your mouth for about 30 seconds and then spit it out. Do not swallow.

Storage.
Store your dental tonic in a cool, dark place and use it within two weeks.

Remember, this dental tonic is a supplementary oral care product. Continue with your regular brushing and flossing routine, and visit your dentist for regular check-ups.
