Hi
Any natural suggestions to get rid of tartar buildup on teeth? I don't want to have a dentist picking away at my gumline:)

Thanks!

I've had great results from regular use of an anti-plaque rinse before brushing.

So the anti plaque rinse helped with tartar already built up? and same for hydrogen peroxide and baking soda?
Thanks again!

TOOTH SOAP!!!!!!

Home-made. Natural vegan non-glycerin soap melted with some water and coconut oil. Best thing I've ever used in my life. Currently using Kiss My Face Pure Olive Oil Soap or Mountain Sky Rippin Hemp Soap and Shampoo Bar

IMO the perfect perscription tooth soap is waaaaay overpriced for what it is and it goes old quickly. It was not worth the money for me.
Dr bronners is about the same thing and MUCH cheaper and more versatile too.
I like Ecodent and Theives toothpastes.
In addition I like to add myrhh powder and pascalite clay to my toothpaste.
I have no tarter problems.

Since I switched to tooth soap I have literally had little bits of tartar come off my teeth. It hasn't happened while I am brushing, they have just come off randomly during the day. They're nice and clean back there now!
I don't know if it's because of the tooth soap or not but it wasn't happening before, that's all I know.

Natural whitening: Oil pull morning and evening for a few weeks. I can't believe how white my teeth are. I once heard someone on this forum say oil pulling made their teeth "blindingly bright." Well, it's true in my case, too! So at this point I only oil pull a few times per week.
