brushing your teeth with salt?

I read in a book that a good natural way to whiten your teeth is to brush them with salt. I do it sometimes and afterwards they do look a little less yellow and very very clean. They feel much cleaner after I brush them with salt as opposed to tooth paste.
Any thoughts?

 

also try baking soda

 

OR try 1/2 salt and 1/2 baking soda and a drop of peppermint essential oil or a drop of tea tree essential oil.

right now i use a tooth powder made out of 1/2 salt 1/2 baking soda and a bit of powdered goldenseal root. my teeth are SO clean.

 

I'm English... there fore my teeth suck!

 

five years of braces fucked mine up!
How does baking soda taste?

 

it's a lot different than using toothpaste that's for sure. you just get used to it after a while.

 

I still don't like the idea of it... How do you use salt on your teeth? Salty water or what? Is it nasty on the tounge?

 

mmmm... sounds fun! MICHEAL, COME HERE! WANNA BRUSH MY TEETH WITH YOUR CUM! Michael? nah, I don't he'll let me use his.

 

wow alright i'll try that salt

 

haha, I brush with baking soda, thought I'm the only freak here But I do it because toothpastes have like animal products in them. I have to confess I don't remember what exactly, but there was something :-/

 

5 years?? i've had mine on for a little over two... i can't stand them any longer!

 

You should also try swishing with Hydrogen peroxide.

 

h202 is fun. lots of fizzy bubbles, you can pretend that you have rabies. just dont swallow any of that stuff.

wet the toothbrush with water and then sprinkle baking soda on it. if you use salt, you might want to grind it up in the blender (or coffee grinder, or food processor, or whatever) first to make it finer, regular salt is pretty coarse.

 

i add a drop or two of tea tree oil and boy does that stuff taste bad....

 

just get your toothbrush wet and sprinkle some salt on it. It's different, but it doesn't taste horrible.I use enough to make it taste pretty salty.

 

yeah I wanna stop using toothpaste because I read in some article that it was tested that people who use flouride generally have a lower IQ than those who don't. Hmm?

 

I was also only supposed to have mind on for two years, but I guess my family forgot about my teeth and they didn't come off until I was 17

 

hmm...no thanks.

 

I tried that once...it made me puke...

 

Well, I read that flouride is GOOD for your brain - it kinda helps your memory. I read about a monk who tought his disciple not to have sex or masturbate, because sperm contains lots of flouride and thus ejaculating would fuck up his memory. So don't masturbate, kids! (sex without making babies is also masturbating )

Yeah, but I'm afraid a bit that this soda stuff might like scratch my teeth so they get easier to be attacked by sugars and stuff. Isn't this kinda polishing them harmful? 'Cause well, you know - toothpaste is smooth and gentle, but soda actually scratches the teeth in a way! Any dentists here?
