Brilio.net - Taking care of dental and oral health is often considered trivial by some people. In fact, the habit of being lazy about cleaning teeth can trigger various serious problems, one of which is tartar.
Tartar is formed from a hard layer that comes from the accumulation of plaque, bacteria, and food residue that is not cleaned regularly. The presence of tartar not only interferes with appearance, but also triggers other health problems, such as bad breath, tooth decay, and inflammation of the gums.
To overcome tartar, many people choose to go to the doctor. However, there are also many who seek alternative solutions using natural ingredients. One method that is now popular is oil pulling using coconut oil.
Coconut oil contains lauric acid which is known to be effective in reducing bacteria and plaque on teeth. In addition, its antimicrobial content can prevent inflammation and maintain gum health. The natural cleaning properties in coconut oil also help remove plaque while maintaining moisture in the mouth area.
So, are you interested in cleaning tartar from these natural ingredients? Let's take a look at the information shared by YouTube user The Yoga Institute, Friday (10/1).
