A beautiful smile always complements great skin! That is why you should never forget about natural skin care products for tooth care. Mainstream products that contain dangerous ingredients like fluoride and peroxide are more like what you may want to forget. If you are not going to “clean” your skin with these types of products, why would you  “clean” your mouth with similar products? Read below for tips to help you really clean your smile the natural way!
1- Seek natural skin products (toothpastes) with key ingredients to protect and ward off oral infections.  Peppermint essential oil or other mint oils are choice for antibacterial purposes. Cranberry extract prevents plaque, and baking soda is the whitening alternative to hydrogen peroxide. Its rare to find a natural toothpaste will all three of these ingredients so you may have to pick and choose which you need more.
2- Don’t neglect other dental care essentials like mouthwash and dental floss.  Many companies who make natural toothpaste also make natural or herbal-based mouthwashes and dental floss products. There is also the old-fashioned do-it-yourself route with homemade herbal mouthwashes which you can google up for recipes.
3- The natural health foods you eat can help in more ways than one! Use strawberries to brighten up your smile, green tea as a oral rinse, and mix a little tea tree essential oil in your natural toothpaste for healthier gums. If you ever get gum disease, you might want to consider neem oil as an alternative therapy as it features anti-fungal properties that fight against the infection. Remember to consult your dentist before trying any therapy or medicine, natural or otherwise.
