I heard that snake oil works better for this instead of coconut oil.
any tips
If I wanted to whiten teeth at home – I don’t, but if I did – I’d probably use those whitening strips, which it looks like use hydrogen peroxide.
Coconut oil is what movie theaters use on popcorn and IMHO is the best use for it if you’ve got some. I used to keep a jar of it along with some Flavacol to get the movie-theater experience.
EDIT: I later switched to a mix of chili oil and olive oil for popcorn, which is not as authentic but can be misted with a mister without congealing in the mister and is also pretty good.
Just talk to your dentist
Thanks for stopping by, that costs money I aint got rn, foo ;)
I’m sorry. I know US healthcare sucks. However, your best bet for healthy teeth is to brush and floss regularly, not to use unscientific home remedies.
If OP has $ to spend on 🥥 oil they have $ to spend ~$12/month on state dental insurance… Unless your state really sucks.
Massachusetts open enrollment through Jan. 23 as an example…
Otherwise get outta here and go back to reddit/Facebook OP.
Just smile at the sun a lot
Although I understand the downvotes for “alternative medicine”, I wouldn’t mind an update in a few weeks, just out of curiosity.
Is there anything to this? Did you get results? Keep track of it “for science” and let us know what you think.
Curious why you would ask this here instead of just doing a web search? If you don’t like reading search results, you can just get an AI summary. It’s at least as reliable as asking a bunch of internet randos chiming in. Here you’re probably more likely to get “10W-40, twice a day” answers over serious ones.
Personally, I prefer 5W and only oil pull once a month.
If you do something that isn’t recommended do a google search for how to do it safely
