Many Morgellons disease patients struggle with dental health. Unfortunately, the bacterial imbalance you have does not limit itself to just your skin and stomach. Your dental health can also be affected. This typically happens to people who have a more severe case of Morgellons disease and some who have had this for an extended period of time. If you are one of those people, then this should help. And luckily, once you begin to implement the No More Morgellons Program you will begin to see improvements in your dental health, if MD has had an impact on it. In the meantime, here are a few ways to help speed this process up.
Why Does This Happen?
This is happening because you have a bacterial imbalance in your mouth. You have too much bad bacteria. The same way that this happens to your gut and skin this can happen in your mouth. In many cases, this is a stain-forming bacteria that can make your teeth look as if you have never brushed them before!
Common Symptoms
Those that are suffering dental problems due to Morgellons experience some or all of the following symptoms:
- Teeth that become black, dark, or discolored due to stain-forming bacteria
- Loose teeth
- Large periodontal pockets
- Chronic bad breath
- Excessive cavities
How To Treat It
The first and most important step in treating Morgellons disease related dental problems, should be to begin the No More Morgellons Program. By changing your diet, taking antimicrobials, and rebalancing your digestive tract with good gut-friendly bacteria, you will literally see a dramatic difference in your dental health in the first two weeks.
Here are the other steps that I suggest you take in order to protect and improve your dental health.
Brush – Be sure to brush after each meal using an electric toothbrush. If you are not currently using an electric toothbrush, then you need to start. Electric toothbrushes are believed to be by dentists more effective at removing plaque and keeping your teeth and gums healthy.
Floss – I really hate dental floss but it is so important to do. If you are like me, then I suggest you switch to dental picks. You get the benefits of flossing without having to put your entire hand in your mouth!
Mouthwash – It helps to kill bacteria in places that you cannot reach with floss or brushing. If you are looking for a more natural mouthwash you can make it by adding one teaspoon of baking soda to one cup of water, then just add a few drops of peppermint essential oil.
Water Flosser– If you are having problems with your gums and have large periodontal pockets then this is a great tip for you. Buy a water flosser. I recommend using it each night before bed. The real secret is to add baking soda to your water. How much you will add will depends on the size of your water flosser’s tank but be sure to add enough to make it effective but not so much that it clogs your flosser.
Tartar Eraser Polisher – If you have black bacterial stains on your teeth, you can actually get them off fairly easily using a tartar eraser polisher. They are effective at removing teeth stains. They are also inexpensive and easy to find on Amazon.
Oil Pulling – I want you to have one more tool in your toolbelt for dental health. Oil pulling can be great for dental and oral hygiene. Use one tablespoon of cold-pressed coconut oil and swish it in your mouth for about ten minutes. Be sure to spit out the oil and not swallow it. It’s great for stains and to remove bacteria.
Regular Dental Checkups – Look I hate going to the dentist just like you… But, it’s important and necessary. Make sure you are getting checkups every six months the way you are supposed to. Besides, if you are following the other steps that I have here then your dental visits will not be too bad at all.
There you have it, these are the steps I believe you should take if you are having dental problems due to MD. And, if you haven’t joined our new Facebook group be sure to do so!
