2. Natural Mouthwash Recipe for Mouth Inflammation

Myrrh tincture is astringent and helps reduce inflammation, plus it also has antibacterial properties. Put 1 teaspoon of myrrh powder in 200 ml of water, and simmer for about 30 minutes.

Repeat the process 5-6 times a day.

Apart from the pleasant taste, peppermint infusion has certain anesthetic properties. Steep 1 teaspoon of dried peppermint leaves in a cup of boiling water for 20 minutes. Strain and use the cooled infusion to rinse your mouth. Then spit it out. Repeat the process as many times as you want. Or, use peppermint essential oil dissolved in basil tea. Add one drop of peppermint essential oil to 50 ml of basil (cold maceration or infusion). Mix and rinse your mouth after brushing.

Propolis is one of the most powerful natural disinfectants and an amazing key ingredient in natural mouthwash recipes. Add 10 drops of propolis tincture 30% in one cup of water.

Why Make Your Own Mouthwash at Home

Conventional mouthwash that you find in stores is loaded with potentially harmful chemicals, that can cause real harm in the long run. These substances are:

There are many other toxic and very dangerous ingredients in mouthwashes. And the fact of the matter is, they don’t deliver as pormices.

Know that diet plays a crucial role in teeth health. And I do not refer to foods that come in direct contact with the teeth. Cavities, plaque, bad breath are most often than not caused by a poor diet, and pathogens causing havoc in the gut and demineralizing teeth. Take good care of what you eat, use a natural toothpaste and rinse with your own homemade natural mouthwash.
