Re: My teeth are remineralizing.
Thieves oil has done nothing but irritate our skin.
When my husband, who has a lifetime history of criminal neglect and abuse and homelessness as a child and young adult, slacked off on using a calcium based toothpaste, AND his vit D, he had another tooth break up, but there was only very limited infection this time. No involvement of the gum.
What works for your teeth is going to be personalized to you.
Bacterial infections of the mouth / having a compromised immune system, will destroy your teeth.
Nutritional deficiencies, particularly in key bone building vitamins and minerals, will destroy your teeth. Interestingly, directly supplementing saliva with calcium helps enamel rebuild and fight off bacteria, but it's part of the nutritional picture.
You can fight one, and not win on the other.
There are now more calcium based toothpastes on the market than when I first started this thread. All of them may have ingredients that are objectionable. I hate finding them with SLS in them. I'd rather just deal with glycerin. It doesn't seem to have any negative effect on our teeth.
