Talking about Teeth

Last November, one of my dental crowns fell out and I visited the dentist in order to have it glued back in. She advised me about using a special crown flosser and I was lucky enough to obtain the very last one from the local chemist. In October I had started to follow the advice of Dr Tom Kelso the Happy Mouth® dentist. I was doing a class with the world wide co-ordinator Shauna Teaken who mentioned a simple, practise to help the mouth and the gums and I bought the softest toothbrush, I could find and began using it. It is recommended to change the diet to a slightly alkaline one so; I slowly made that change as well. I had to find out what that was!

Last week, I went for my usual check-up and the dentist said “Oh I can see an improvement in the amount of plaque from last time”. She was reluctant to remove the very tiny, amount which had built up. I am delighted!

In January, I had taken on more of the Happy Mouth® practises and started using the recommended mouthwash as well as the Chinese herbs and willow sticks, instead of tooth brush. At first, all of this seems daunting however I got into the swing of things quite easily. In fact, it was fun especially when I visited a chemist who did not stock Hydrogen Peroxide (for the mouthwash) she gave me a lecture about the UK’s state of high alert as being the reason.

I knew in my heart that it is possible to change the health of the teeth and gums and my determination is now reaping its rewards.

I choose not to tell my dentist about the extra, practise I had started; a few years ago she and I were talking about teeth and whether it was possible to re-grow them. She said no, so I figured it would be best to keep things to myself and lo, things had changed, naturally and effortlessly. If you would like to know more about what I am currently doing to improve the health of my teeth and gums I would be happy to talk or write to you.
