Summary
In this video, I’m going to show you how to make natural toothpaste to help eliminate tartar and prevent it from coming back.
Tartar is a calcified, pale, yellow, hard substance that accumulates on your teeth. It can lead to gingivitis as well as bad breath. Tartar is made up of a colony of bacteria that survives in something called a biofilm.
Biofilms contain bacteria, fungi, yeast, and candida. Tartar biofilms ferment carbohydrates in your mouth and release lactic acid, which can leach away your calcium and cause cavities.
Many ancient cultures used natural toothpaste, but these recipes were very abrasive and wore down the teeth.
This homemade toothpaste recipe is far more gentle yet still effective at removing plaque. To make this toothpaste, combine the following ingredients:
•3 drops of either clove oil, peppermint oil, or cinnamon oil, or a pinch of turmeric powder
•¼ teaspoon hydrogen peroxide
•¼ teaspoon baking soda
•¼ teaspoon raw honey or manuka honey
•½ cup water
Mix these ingredients and brush your teeth with the mixture using a soft bristle toothbrush twice per day.
Vitamin K2 has also shown promising results in removing and preventing tartar buildup.

| 0:07.1 | What is tartar? Well, tartar is this calcified, pale yellow hard growth on the inside of your teeth |
| 0:16.0 | that tends to get into your gums. It can create gingivitis. It can create bad breath. |
| 0:21.9 | And if we take a look at what tartar really is, |
| 0:24.0 | it's actually a collection, a colony of bacteria |
| 0:27.3 | that is in a slime that then has calcified. |
| 0:31.6 | And that's just a way that microorganisms survive in nature. |
| 0:36.6 | Over 95% of all bacteria in nature survive as biofilms. |
| 0:41.7 | Now, if you ever walked through the woods and you saw a little stream and you reached down |
| 0:45.5 | and picked up one of the rocks in the stream, on the outer part of it, you're going to feel |
| 0:50.1 | it's kind of slimy. That's biofilms. I mean, even in your pool, if people don't use enough |
| 0:55.8 | chlorine or other things, natural things like certain salts and things, then you'll get this |
| 1:01.7 | slimy thing at the bottom of your pool. And these biofilms are not just bacteria. There's a bit of |
| 1:08.2 | fungus as well, yeast and candida. And they are not on keto. In other words, |
| 1:15.2 | they like carbs. They ferment carbohydrates in your mouth. And then what happens is they release |
| 1:21.6 | lactic acid. And so they make your mouth really acid. And that acid has the potential to leach away your |
| 1:29.4 | calcium and break down your teeth, giving you cavities and all sorts of wear and tear in your teeth. |

| 1:40.2 | very inexpensively, and it's very effective and very natural. You know, when they looked at ancient |
| 1:45.6 | Egyptian like mummy tombs, the teeth were pretty messed up. They had a lot of dental problems. |
| 1:52.4 | And it probably came from all the beer and the bread that they consumed, which is the perfect food |
