There is no doubt about the benefits of using herbal remedies for oral hygiene programmes; they also are great when problems crop up in the mouth.

Herbal remedies have been around for years and though their use may have got lost among the remarkable advances in technology and treatments in modern dentistry, they are starting to rise in popularity again and are seen as a viable alternative to the more obvious choices in oral care. Dentists on the other hand see herbal options as a great ally to modern dental industry.

It is first good to talk to your dentist/hygienist about herbal options and then find a good qualified herbalist who can advise you what to use and there are plenty of places in the city of Leeds where you can purchase the products you need.

Herbal products are an excellent way to tackle tooth pain and gum disease- products such as willow root oil, tea tree oil, clove oil, Echinacea…all have incredible soothing and healing properties and can be integrated into your normal daily programme of oral hygiene- you can also buy herbal toothpastes and mouthwashes as well. The idea is not to replace all the wonderful treatments that dentists offer, but to support them- in the end; it is the health of your mouth that will benefit.
