We went to a dentist who did ozone treatments to treat the decay, and that worked well for Monkey. But, she was under 2 at the time we did it, and at one point, she refused to let the dentist continue. So he took the ozone gas into a syringe, injected that into a small glass of water, and painted that "ozone water" on her teeth.

So that gave me the great idea to do that at home. I bought a water ozonator. Once a day, I would ozonate a small cup of water. After that was done, I added in a good amount of xylitol. We called it "sweet water" and we used that to brush her teeth before bed. (Previously, we had been using the "sweet water" with regular water, not ozonated water. It tastes the same.) The evidence is only anecdotal, but I feel that this worked beautifully for her. She had some pretty severe decay going on. We did this every day for about a year or so, and then I got lazy about it because her teeth were doing so great. She did get more decay about a year after we stopped doing this.

Monkey is now nearly 7, and her new dentist wants us to start doing this again. Her new dentist also really pushes water irrigation "after every meal." (We eat about 6 times a day, so that's not going to happen over here!)
Thanks so much for sharing that. Glad that it worked so well for y'all.

Eve's Tooth Healing Paste, it is the second one on this page

If you have corn sensitivities make sure your xylitol is hardwood based.
The last few times I made it for the kids I used ground cinnamon from my kitchen to flavour it (instead of peppermint) and called it cinnamon sugar cookie flavour. It has been a hit.

Terrific. Thank you! We will omit the peppermint since he doesn't like peppermint. We will just do plain.

Also, yesterday we added homemade jello to our list of bone/teeth supporting supplements/foods. They were REALLY excited about that one. They helped me make it and they thoroughly enjoyed eating it.

This is the one we own:

http://www.amazon.com/Ozonator-Ozone...water+ozonator

But this one looks good, and it's much less expensive. And it has a lot more reviews.

Do you know about the mineral and good flora part? You know how even colloidal silver is good for zapping fungus and viruses but have heard it also takes out good gut flora? Do you drink the ozone water? Is amazing it takes out even fluoride in water

We don't drink the ozonated water, though I have read about the benefits. It's the potential problems that hold me back from drinking it.

I am currently taking colloidal silver, but I'm nervous about that too. My doc wants me to take it.

As long as you can replenish your good flora.
