It helped make my teeth feel better, but over time it had stained my teeth
I used it for a couple of things, boiled it then soaked my stubbed toe (damaged my joint), can't say that really helped me (don't know if I was using it wrong). But the main reason I got this was to heal my teeth. I had a few cavities that I needed to take care of, so I boiled some and swished it around my mouth. It helped make my teeth feel better, but over time it had stained my teeth. Not much at first, but I made the mistake of leaving some in my mouth overnight, and by morning, it had stained them brown. A little more every time. It was in streaks so I knew it was staining something on my tooth, not the enamel itself. I had no fear because I had positive results of getting plaque off with coconut oil in the past, so once I got home, I oil pulled and brushed, and immediately I could see a small difference. I oil pulled for an hour the night before a dentist teeth cleaning, left some in my mouth overnight, then oil pulled for another hour in the morning, and by the time the cleaning was done, they were shiny white!<br /><br />Four stars because not entirely sure what to think, on one side it kind of made my teeth feel better, but I don't want to use it again and risk staining my teeth. I'm scheduled to go to the dentist to finally fix my cavities, but I'm not sure what to think. Maybe I should give it another shot and really go hard on that diet, because I didn't really stay strict to the teeth-fixing diet.<br /><br />Disclaimer: I did not ingest all of the necessary ingredients to heal my teeth, and cheated a bit with bread a lot and sugar occasionally. I took blended eggshell most or every night before doing this as well. I had it, but don't remember if I always took the Blue Ice HVBO. Maybe now that I'm at home (and not vacation- was there for 2 months) and drink raw milk and a more steady diet I can make this work, who knows. I've had a history of bad teeth so even if I get the cavities filled, this might not be the end of this journey for me. I will though definitely be staying sugar free. Keep in mind that whatever raises blood sugar will pull calcium, so even some sugar substitutes like sugar alcohol will be bad for teeth.
