Tea Tree Oil For Gum Disease

Trusted Health Products

Many people aren't aware that there are a number of essential or botanical oils that can be used for ailments instead of more traditional and pricy methods of treatment. This is the case with dental health as there are so many options when it comes to alternative treatments that actually work and provide amazing results. Tea tree oil can be used as a great way to combat or even treat gum disease. Here are all the ways that it can be used in order to be proactively effective. 

Plaque Prevention

Those who develop gum disease all share a common fate - they did not rid their teeth and upper gums thoroughly of the film that is plaque. Plaque turns into tarter which leads to inflamed gums and often gum disease. It's a viscous cycle that can very commonly be interrupted by adding specific elements into your oral care routine. Tea tree oil effectively targets the infectious microorganisms that are responsible for destroying the tissue in the mouth. This bacteria is what causes plaque and receding gums. Just a little bit of tea tree oil mixed with a lighter carrier oil swished around the mouth after brushing will do the trick.

Bad Breath

Gum disease isn't always something that we recognize. There are people that think it's normal to have bad breath, tartar, discolored or bleeding gums, but what many don't realize is that these signs are there to warn of what may be imminent. If you have chronic bad breath or if food particles get caught in certain parts of your teeth, it may be a sign that you are suffering from gum disease. Using a tea tree-based mouthwash is suggested as it freshens notoriously bad breath. If you add it to a mouthwash, you'll only need a few drops of the oil since it is strong.

Prevention

Dentists in Australia believe that using tea tree oil as a dental aid is the quintessential way to prevent gum disease from occurring. Because gum disease is caused by the inflammation of gums from the accumulation of plaque, really targeting the plaque would solve the issue and less cases of gum disease would need to be traditionally treated. Taking 3 to 5 drops of tea tree oil in a glass of water and swishing it in your mouth before you go to bed is a great method to prevent the occurrence of gum disease.

Toothache

If you are struggling with elevated gum disease, you may find that certain teeth or parts of the gums are more sensitive than others. The great thing about tea tree oil is that it has anti inflammatory and numbing properties that will allow you to find a bit of relief from mouth pain. Just a couple of drops of tea tree oil on a Q-tip placed where the pain is will help to eradicate it almost immediately upon contact.
