How to Make Herbal Tooth Powder

Hello, Everyone!  The following video features a recipe for tooth powder which can be used instead of toothpaste for brushing your teeth. John Gallagher of LearningHerbs.com and Mt. Rose Herbs is sharing the recipe, which is from Heather Nic an Fhleisdeir of the Academy of Scottish Herbalism, with us.

The quick and easy recipe includes sea salt, kaolin clay, baking soda, spearmint essential oil and dried sage.  I've used each one of these ingredients individually, except the kaolin clay.   I am looking forward to trying these ingredients together, according to this recipe.

Gallagher shares tips with us as he prepares the tooth powder.  Among the interesting tips he shares are: (1) kaolin clay is used in the tooth polish dentists use and (2) sage helps whiten teeth! I didn't know that about sage.  I love the flavor of sage, especially in chicken dishes.

As we get our hair in great condition and our bodies toned, we might as well pamper our teeth and gums, too!
