Do you want to have a healthy teeth?

In the pursuit of "Natural health", people are gradually realizing the limitations of traditional chemical care products and turning to explore milder alternatives. Among them,essential oils, a natural essence derived from plants, are becoming a new choice for oral care with their long history of application and the endorsement of modern scientific research.

According to research, there are more than 700 species of microorganisms living in the human mouth, with up to 600 million per milliliter of saliva. These microorganisms form a delicate balance, including both "beneficial bacteria" that maintain oral health and "pathogenic bacteria" that wait for opportunities.

In the face of these "invisible killers", in addition to traditional mechanical cleaning and chemical mouthwashes, nature also provides us with a powerful weapon - essential oils. Essential oils are the defensive essence of plants and can also help us resist the invasion of viruses and bacteria. In recent years, a large number of scientific studies have confirmed the application value of essential oils in oral care.

A review study published in the journal Pharmacy pointed out that essential oils have many properties that are beneficial to oral health, including anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, antibacterial and bactericidal properties. This enables essential oils to fight harmful bacteria that cause gingivitis and tooth decay from the root.
