Neem Tooth Paste
Neem Tooth Paste Numerous researches conducted on neem, to test its efficacy in treating dental problems have led to the conclusion that it is indeed, a good- naturally occurring plant helping to maintain the oral hygiene and keeping dental problems at bay. Neem oil is used to manufacture toothpaste, it is also being used to make medicated toothpastes.

High quality herbal neem toothpaste are being manufactured and marketed the world over to meet the growing demand for natural products away from synthetics and which are more effective and also have no side effects.

Neem oil and extracts are also used as active ingredients by ayurveda practitioners to cure dental aches, improve the strength of gums and keep the teeth germ free. The anti bacterial quality in neem helps to fight germs round the clock, prevent tooth decay, eliminate bad breath, and ensure strong teeth.

According to tests conducted in different countries, it has been concluded that Neem extracts not only prevent tooth decay, but also prevent inflammations of the gums. Concentrated leaf extracts are especially used in most of herbal neem tooth paste and medicated tooth pastes. Neem bark extracts are also sometimes used in herbal toothpastes.

Neem Leaf: a double-blind trial, 1 gram of neem leaf extract in gel twice per day was more effective than chlorhexidine or placebo gel at reducing plaque and bacteria levels in the mouth in 36 Indian adults.52 A similar trial found neem gel superior to placebo and equally effective as chlorhexidine at reducing plaque and bacteria levels in the mouth.53 These promising early studies should be followed by studies regarding prevention of cavities and relief from gingivitis or periodontal disease.

Neem oil Neem (Azadirachta indica) is valued in Ayurvedic medicine for its varied healing properties due to its anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-viral capabilities. A cousin of mahogany, neem is a tropical evergreen tree native to India and Myanmar. Over 60 medicinal uses have been documented for neem so far - such as acne, eczema, psoriasis, cold sores, dandruff, athlete's foot, ulcers, ringworm, and gingivitis, to name a few. For gingivitis, gargle with a solution of 12-20 drops of neem leaf extract in two ounces of water, or use neem toothpaste. Caution: Pregnant women or those trying to conceive should not ingest any neem product.
