A lot of people struggle with oral health problems, particularly bad breath and many do not know the exact cause. For the majority of people who have bad breath, the single most frequent cause is associated with bacteria that live in their mouth. Bacteria, like each one of us goes through life, consuming food and then excreting waste and some oral bacteria excrete sulphur compounds and it is this type of waste product that is generally at the root of a person’s oral health problems.
So, as more and more plaque builds up in a person’s mouth, the bacteria that cause bad breath gain available living space and proliferate, thus increasing the odour causing compound which escapes with each breath that we exhale.
There are many types of oral health products available in the market place for example mouth washes, tooth pastes both natural and some containing fluoride.

Australia’s dental care not covered in the Health Debate
The pro-fluoride campaigners delight in telling us how effective fluoridating the public water supply is in helping to prevent cavities and dental decay.
Then how come parts of Victoria such as Frankston and Mornington Peninsula, both parts of Greater Melbourne Metro that have been fluoridated since 1977 have such an enormous dental problem?
How come in the recent health debate whereby Prime Minister Rudd has urged the States to all become part of Federal Government in looking after Health did not deem oral health an issue. Why did none of the States raise this as being an issue.
Over the years Marilyn Vine has taken a great interest in oral and personal health. It is a well known fact that under the tongue is the quickest place in your body to absorb things into your bloodstream. When you know this – why would you use some of the products out in the market place?
I felt so concerned with some of the articles and information that was coming to hand that I took the time to put together a free e-book called Health Warnings. This book became so large that I had to break it into Part 1 and Part 2.
In Part 1 of Health Warnings I devoted a whole section to Oral Care and Fluoridation. Its importance was so high that it is Section 2 of Part 1. Some of the articles shown include:
Mouthwash Scare
Mouthwash Linked to Oral Cancer, Erosion of Tooth Enamel
Milder Listerine Announced Following Cancer Report
Mouthwash Danger.
Mouthwashes May Harm Children
Mouthwashes Pose Hazard to Children
Canker Sore Sufferers
Is your Toothpaste Really “Natural”
Fluoride
Recommended that Infants Avoid Ingesting Fluoridated Water
Chlorine Link to Defects Verified

In the meantime I have found some very good toothpastes containing an exclusive formula of all-natural, plant-derived ingredients such as vegetable glycerin and ionic trace minerals. These toothpastes use gentle, odour-absorbing baking soda and a unique blend of essential oils that are known to be anti microbial and extremely protective of your health.
There are three different options and also dental floss and mouthwash all using essential oils and natural ingredients.
I believe these products are extremely good oral health products. Recently I read a testimonial from a Mom who had taken her son to get braces off his teeth. He had the braces on for 2 ½ years. The staff at the Orthodonist were dumbfo0und because his teeth are darker under where the braces were than the rest of his teeth. Normally the teeth get yellower and the part under the braces stay whiter. I guess that is a pretty good testimonial to the power of the oral health products.
I have read many times that a good tip is to put baking soda on your toothbrush every now and then to keep your teeth white well I guess the baking soda in the list of ingredients is surely doing its job!
