Toothpaste To Really Make You Smile

Each year I make two appointments to go to the dentist, and each year they would find at least one cavity. Pregnancy was unkind to my teeth as well. No matter how careful I was, the hygienist and dentist found at least double the cavities I normally have while I was pregnant. When I went for my six-month checkup with my most recent pregnancy, I expected no less. I climbed into the chair, opened wide, and waited for them to find the cavities. First the hygienist said nothing, which was strange. She always tells me the moment she finds a cavity. Being in a hormonally unstable state to begin with, I began to really worry. Did she find something really bad? The dentist came in soon after and examined my teeth. He stood up, gave me a smile and said, 'Well, I guess we'll see you in six months.' I was in shock. No cavities? I always have cavities! I was still brushing twice a day and flossing regularly. I used mouthwash when I remembered, but if I'm perfectly honest, that isn't as often as I should. What was the difference, then? I had changed what I was using.



This is my dream team! After reading what was actually in my previous toothpaste and mouthwash, and wanting to use Thieves with my floss as well, I made the change to Thieves Dentranome Ultra toothpaste, Thieves dental floss, and Thieve mouthwash. My husband said my breath was fresher, which was enough to make my new routine stick. Still, even with the first dentist appointment finding no cavities, I wasn't convinced. It took two visits in a row without the slightest trace of a cavity to convince me that something about the Young Living Thieves toothpaste, floss, and mouthwash worked well with my body to support the natural health of my teeth. Knowing there were no synthetic chemicals being absorbed through my mouth and passing on to my unborn child also gave me peace of mind.



Our family has since expanded our switch to include our children. Our children love the taste of their new KidScents toothpaste and the fun monster on the front of their tube. We love that they enjoy learning healthy brushing habits without the added chemicals most children's toothpastes have. They have also continued to enjoy the cavity-free visits to the dentist.

These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA. They are not meant to treat, diagnose, or cure. You should always be aware that oils do not always support each individual's system equally, but for our family, switching our oral care products and continue to practice our routine for healthy gums and teeth was a great move in our journey to reduce chemicals and enhance our health.
