You're being downvoted and yet your comment is worthy and even a "hack" so to speak. That's sad and typical. On behalf of people who care and are fascinated, thank you.
Oil pulling works and remineralizes tooth enamel. I do it occasionally. However, using a toothbrush to remove most food particles beforehand saves a lot of time. Do both. Then cleanse with a quick water rinse after. There are some biodegradable and recyclable toothbrushes on the market.
- driverdan 13y agoHe's being downvoted because it sounds like pseudoscience and he didn't provide any sources to back up the claims.
- aric 13y agoI'm skeptical about everything. However, I try not to downvote that which sounds pseudo-scientific even when it contradicts deep preconceptions. I try to remain open, intrigued, and investigative. Fewer things in life have several major, unbiased studies that can act as evidence. It's helpful to reject any broad claim of a "fact" while accepting it as a matter of thought. Hmm... Upon further consideration, in defense of downvoters, the person's claim was pretty extreme to reject the benefits of brushing. That makes it a disservice to his/her other point. Ah well. Most people haven't tried oil to remineralize. Most people won't. I'm in the minority of those who have, with empirical benefit.
