continuing gum erosion

Hi all,
a few months ago, I posted a question on this forum about dealing with gum erosion. Somebody suggested I use "white oak bark powder" to remedy the problem, but after using it for 2.5 months, I can see that the erosion continues to worsen.
BTW, i've been oilpulling daily for almost 3 months now. I do Liver Flushing (12th flush tommorrow), vegan diet & exercise, so I'm fairly certain that my body is in good health (but apparently not good enough to stop the gum loss). Other than the gum loss, I have nothing else to complain about.
This is my daily routine:
morning:
oilpull 2x @ 10 minutes each pull with expeller pressed, refined sesame oil
mouthrinse with Bentonite clay solution
brush teeth with non-fluouride toothpaste
after lunch:
brush teeth with non-fluouride toothpaste
bedtime:
brush teeth with non-fluouride toothpaste & a few drops of oil of oregano
sleep with teabag filled with white oak bark powder on other side of mouth, between gum and cheek.
If anyone can suggest what I should do to stop the gum erosion , that would be great. The affected area is on the outside of the bicuspid on the lower-left.
I was thinking of trying bloodroot toothpaste. They advertise it as being able to control gum disease. Does anyone know anything about this stuff?

This is a reply to # 110,293Check the ingredients on your toothpaste to see if it contains glycerin. Glycerin causes problems with your teeth and gums as well.

This is a reply to # 110,298Hi 13788,
I take about 1 gram of vitamin C a day (capsules), plus whatever is in the vegetables and other foods. Do you think that's enough, or should i consume more?

MoreThis is a reply to # 110,293I thought that herb was for tooth remineralization? It's the reason I got Dr. Christophers Tooth and Gum because it has that herb in it. Were you taking this straight? I mean, not in a formula?
I do put oregano oil and tea tree oil in my oil for the antibacterial effect. I find that this has at least allowed my gums from suffering further damage.
I am also looking for that magic bullet for gums. Even though my mouth health is much better from pulling, my gums have changed very little (as far as the amount they have receded). I won't stop oil pulling, but I will continue to pursue this.
There have been so many posts! Does anyone really know what might cause gum tissue to regrow?

MoreThis is a reply to # 110,302Hi Molly,
yes, I was taking the white-oak-bark powder by itself. Each night for the past 2+ months, I'd put a tiny bit in a teabag, and then stuff it between my gum and cheek and keep it there overnight. Not the most pleasant experience, but in the interest of healing my gums, I'm willing to go the extra mile.
Do you think the Dr. Christopher stuff will perform any better?

This is a reply to # 110,293Try to take Q-10. I had the same problem years ago, until I discoverd in a magazine about Q-10 within few weeks my gums were returning to normal. My dentist was amazed about that and he also asked me about the mean I have used. On the next visit to my dentist, he told me that he had recommended Q-10 for some of his patients with succes.
I hope it will also help you.

This is a reply to # 110,307Q-10 also reduces plaque.Make sure you use the newer type that more absorbable.
I use Q-GEL PLUS Dr. Sanatra puts it out.

This is a reply to # 110,293with everything else you are doing, circulation of blood to the gums must be the problem. the oil pulling helps augment elimination and that is where that benefit comes from.
i would suggest cayenne and keep upping the dose as you can tolerate it. second, get the lymph moving. cold sitz baths, hot baths or saunas, and rebounding will improve this.
try this. you dont even need a rebounder(tiny trampoline). stand in loose clothes(or none) and jiggle your flesh on your bones by going up and down rapidly using your feet and ankles. do not jump or leave the ground. just go up and down enough to get the flesh jiggling. use qick motions in rhythm with gravity to get the most travel and jerk on the flesh. do it harder and harder until it feels like everything that isnt bone is jiggling. keep your entire body relaxed except for the muscles you use to jiggle. jar those muscles by whipping them up and down. make that skin fly around. feel it jiggle everywhere. five minutes a day of this will change your life.

This is a reply to # 110,305You need to write a book. In this book, you must somehow insert this in there.
Forever, this will be know as the Trapper Dance. Should we do a theme song?
Do the Trapper Dance
It's popular in France
Do it nude
It's not rude
Your flesh must jiggle
It's serious, don't giggle
Meat off the bone
Your lymphs will moan
Make your skin fly around
Like the face of a hound
Come on, do it harder
Shake all that larder
Do the Trapper Dance
Do the Trapper Dance
Dee Dum Dee Dum Dee Dum
OK, I did a Liver Flush last night, you guys are going to have to excuse me!! I'm tired.

This is a reply to # 110,317Well, seriously Trapper, you were so descriptive you inspired me. I envisioned one of those dancers on that Michael Jackson Thriller video (you know, the dead people?), because I would suspect that a great many of us would look just like that doing this jiggle!! LOLOLOL

This is a reply to # 110,305Trapper is right, bones and teeth need "stimulation" and good blood and lymph ciruculation in able to remineralize. I read a study once where people in wheel chairs where able to rebuild and maintain bone by placing their legs on a vibrating machine. A chi-machine might also be good for this purpose. Dont forget to alkalize to get the pH prime for remineralizing.

This is a reply to # 110,330you got it. but its always better if you can do it yourself on the cheap. we were born with everything we need. i would love to have one of those shakers, though. i have my dad looking for one in his flea market business.

This is a reply to # 110,293There are three procedures that you might try.
1. Salt and soda combination to brush teeth.
2. Colloidal Silver - to kill bacteria-swish for a few minutes.
3. Urine therapy= 5 minutes with a mouthful swished as you would with oil pulling.
These three procedures -along with OP should give you a healthier mouth,teeth and gums. - Thanks everyone for all of the good ... #60265

This is a reply to # 110,293...and there are quite a few possibilities to try, apparently!
I think I'll explore the Q-10 and cayenne options first, and then ever-so-discreetly I might give Trapper's "in-place" rebounding technique a try ;-)
Good or bad, I'll post again after a month or so, with an update. Thanks for all of the responses. - Re: continuing gum erosion #17163

This is a reply to # 110,293I've read that gum erosion is the first sign of mineral deficiency and acid pH. I would work on alkalizing and mineral support-probably deficient in calcium. The gums pull away from the teeth when they loose minerals.

This is a reply to # 110,329Oh and you might try making some eggshell calcium (which has been shown to excellent for bone remineralization). Juice from three large lemons over three eggs for two days then remove the eggs and take some of the liquid througout the day and before bed. I can finally sleep thanks to my eggshell calcium!

This is a reply to # 110,316I tried it with ACV and it was the most rotten gross smelling and vile tasting stuff I have ever tasted. The lemon recipe creates a very neutral pleasant taste.

This is a reply to # 110,319WOAH! Thanks for the heads up! I tried Molasses with my ACV the other morning. YUCK! Honey is much better. I'll save the molasses for oatmeal or cookies or even straight up, but not with ACV.

This is a reply to # 110,332Ugh! Yes the ACV with mollasses in another YUCK! I can however add ACV to my finished eggshell/lemon and not be disguisted.

This is a reply to # 110,331Nice!
Eggshell calcium has been in the back of my mind but I never considered doing the dissolving eggshell trick - I did the vinegar and egg experiment when I was a kid to make rubber eggs lol...
Do you use raw eggs or boiled eggs?
And have you tried brown eggs? I wonder what difference shell color makes...

This is a reply to # 110,323Shell color only has to do with the species of chicken...white skin humans versus black...there's no difference. All the same just different pigment. I was raised on a farm and have eaten all colors of eggs...no difference. It's only in the American public that people aren't taught the natural order of things.

This is a reply to # 110,293You did not mention if you were flossing or irrigating, and if you are not, these procedures may make a difference. Brushing unfortunately will only clean the depth of 1-3mm pockets which is considered normal pocket depth. So if you have deeper pockets where food debris is easliy trapped, this trapped food becomes the food for bacteria which causes infection, the infection inturn destroys the fibers that attach gums to the teeth. It is the destruction of these fibers that causes the gums to recess, and unless the infection is stopped, it will eventually destroy the bone. In addition to oil pulling, I have found great improvement in my gums by following the program outlined on the website saveyourteeth.com. Good luck:)
