Non-toxic + Effective Teeth Whitening Paste

I wish I’d known about this right before my wedding years ago! 😂 But I discovered this nontoxic hack in early 2020 and haven’t looked back!! It’s so easy to make, inexpensive, uses safe ingredients and has benefits outside of just whitening your teeth! 🥳 Coconut oil has been proven to be highly antimicrobial! (People often use it for oil pulling to rebalance their oral microbiome!) But, brushing with it also has antimicrobial benefits, too!

All you need is:

+ 4 tbs organic coconut oil

+ 1/2 tsp organic turmeric powder

+ ~4 drops peppermint essential oil

+ a small glass container

Directions:

+ heat the coconut oil in a small pan and mix in the turmeric thoroughly

+ remove from heat and add the peppermint oil

+ pour mixture into a small jar

+ place in the refrigerator to solidify

+ use as you would regular toothpaste before brushing normally (1-2 times a week should do it!)

A few things to remember:

+ your teeth won’t be stained but your toothbrush will be. 😂 I recommend using a separate toothbrush for this!

+ always spit it out into the trash- *not the sink!!* Coconut oil is no good for plumbing!

Enjoy your brighter smile!! 🤍✨
