Dantha - #7450
I’ve been experiencing recurring dental issues like sensitivity, gum bleeding, and bad breath for a while now. While regular toothpaste and mouthwash offer temporary relief, the problems keep coming back. Recently, I came across the Ayurvedic concept of dantha (dental health) and would like to know more about how Ayurveda addresses oral hygiene and long-term dental care. From what I understand, Ayurveda emphasizes the importance of maintaining healthy gums and teeth through natural remedies and proper routines. Does Ayurveda recommend specific herbal formulations like tooth powders or oils for treating sensitivity or gum issues? Are there any particular herbs, such as neem, clove, or licorice, that work best for dental health? I’ve also read about oil pulling as an Ayurvedic practice for improving dantha. How effective is this technique for reducing gum inflammation and preventing cavities? Should it be done daily, and which oil—sesame, coconut, or something else—is best suited for this purpose? Additionally, are there any dietary changes or lifestyle habits that Ayurveda suggests for maintaining strong teeth and gums? Should I avoid specific foods that may aggravate dental issues or dosha imbalances? If anyone has followed Ayurvedic practices for dantha care, I’d love to hear your results. Did you notice lasting improvements in dental health, and were there any challenges in adopting Ayurvedic routines for oral hygiene?
