The real question isn’t whether oil pulling works, it’s whether you’re doing it correctly.
As a holistic dentist with over 15 years of experience, I explain how to oil pull for oral health. There’s research indicating that oil pulling reduces plaque and bacteria linked to cavities, and thousands of years of use in Ayurveda as a traditional approach to oral care.
You’ll learn how to approach oil pulling correctly, including how long to swish, which types of oil to use, and why five minutes twice a day is often more practical and just as effective as longer routines. I also explain the difference between high-quality oils and typical grocery store options, paying particular attention to the oils’ extraction methods and composition.
We walk through common mistakes like swallowing the oil or disposing of it improperly, and why those details matter. Most importantly, I unpack how oil pulling benefits may help reduce plaque buildup and support a balanced oral environment through its interaction with bacteria.
You’ll Learn:
