Look around you, and you will notice quite a few suffer from one or other dental troubles. In our country, little awareness and a lack of focus on hygiene have given rise to dental issues in rural and urban India. There is a need to focus on good dental care. This should include looking into Ayurveda for some suggestions for taking good care and also looking into Ayurvedic products for help.
Dental troubles
Tooth decay happens when you don’t clean your teeth and mouth after eating. Food particles form tartar, which later causes decay. Bad breath occurs due to issues with the gums and tongue. Many face tooth sensitivity thanks to acids forming from food, tea, and coffee. Stained teeth are caused by a lack of oral sanitation and some food. Tooth pain is another problem.
Speak Ayurveda
Ayurveda, with its age-old herbal knowledge and medicinal uses, offers natural remedies for dental care. Patanjali uses this knowledge to create products for dental health.
Neem’s antibacterial qualities reduce plaque and cavities. Turmeric fights swelling and infections. Try Dant Kanti Natural (18 Gm, 100 Gm. 200 Gm and 500 Gm), an herbal toothpaste containing neem, turmeric, babool, cloves, pudina and other herbs and ingredients for gum and tooth pain and bad breath. It also helps beautify your teeth and provide protection.
To deal with bad breath, gum protection and clean teeth, the Dant Kanti Fresh Active Gel Toothpaste (80 Gm and 100 Gm) will be of help with Ayurvedic ingredients like pudina, fennel, cloves, pomegranate, Nilgiri, ginger, black pepper, cinnamon and honey.
Patanjali’s Divya Manjan (100 Gm) boosts gum’s blood flow, removes pus and stops bad breath. It contains herbs and ingredients like babool, neem, pudina, turmeric, black pepper, rock salt and peppermint.
Some tips can add to your oral health, apart from understanding dental issues and following Ayurveda and Patanjali products.
Simple ways for dental care
Oral hygiene: Along with brushing your teeth twice a day, choose a tongue clear, floss, and mouthwash to remove bacteria on the tongue and food between the teeth and stop ulcers from forming.
Brushing tips: Always use a soft-bristle toothbrush to avoid damage. Change the brush when the bristles fray. Harsh brushing damages the teeth and gums. Ensure the back is also covered in brushing.
Food avoidance: Anything with sugar intake, from processed food to coffee, tea and soft drinks, needs to be limited as the sugar content erodes the enamel. If you have to devour, rinse your mouth thoroughly.
What to eat: Eat a diet rich in calcium and Vitamin C. Include dairy products, almonds, tofu, dark green leafy veggies, oranges and more. Opt for calcium supplements.
Dentist: You must visit the dentist regularly to check for cavities or infections. Clean your teeth. Do not postpone your visit for any teeth-related issues.
Timely care and Ayurvedic care with Patanjali help keep your dental health safe.
