Hey there! So, about your molar and Ayurveda… it’s an interesting topic! When we talk about using Ayurvedic approaches for tooth care, especially for cavities, it’s about focusing on both prevention and some symptom relief. But, real talk—if a cavity’s already formed, reversing it fully with Ayurveda alone might be a long shot.
Neem and clove oil are both great, tho. Neem’s antibacterial properties might help reduce the microbial load in your mouth, slowing the progression of decay. Try neem twig brushing or use neem toothpaste if you don’t mind the taste, it’s a bit bitter but does the job. As for clove oil, applying it with a q-tip directly on the cavity can numbs pain and might offer some antimicrobial action.
Dashan Sanskar Churna is another traditional option—used as a tooth powder, it supports oral health. Just rub a bit on your teeth and gums gently after brushing, but remember it’s not a magic cure.
Diet-wise, cutting down on sugary foods definitely helps. Keeprin’ your oral environment slightly alkaline can discourage acids that promote decay. More raw veggies, fibrous foods can be beneficial—they kinda cleanse the teeth and gums.
Oil pulling is worth a shot—try it with sesame or coconut oil, swish around for 10-15 minutes on an empty stomach. It’s like mouthwash, but more creamy! Can enhance oral hygiene, might reduce bacteria load.
But…remember, a cavity’s basically a hole in the tooth and once it’s there, it doesn’t just dissapear. Fillings prevent further damage, so if your dentist says it’s crucial, consider it seriously. If you delay, it may lead to bigger issues down the road—don’t want that happening.
So yeah, try these methods alongside your dentist recommendations. Prevention and maintenance are key here!
