Better Oral Health, Part 2
The oral health problem is periodontal disease. In the first article, I concentrated on brushing, flossing, and heavy metals as related to inflamed tissue. But the periodontal disease is the next step in the deterioration of the tissues of the oral cavity. Periodontal disease is inflamed gum tissue plus bone loss. This is a chronic disease which means it has been allowed to persist for a long time. Not having your teeth cleaned and checked once or twice a year and poor oral hygiene methods are the means of contracting periodontal disease. So, as you can infer, it is self-inflicted by personal neglect. But now you say you want to change, what do I have to do?
Over 50% of the adult population has periodontal disease, which if left untreated will result in loss of teeth. The first thing you have to do is to make your dental appointment to be evaluated. If you have periodontal disease, there is a step by step treatment process to be followed. In addition, there are supplements you can take to speed the recovery process.
The first addition to your treatment of periodontal disease is CoQ Quinol ( the liquid form of CoQ10). It is a natural enzyme of humans but can be found in short supply in those with the disease, infections, cancer, cancer treatments and if you are over 45 years of age. This form is 8x better than the tablet or gel cap forms of CoQ10 and it is far less expensive ( $75 for a 4-5 month supply versus $50 /mo. for 400mg gell caps). You use a cap full in 2oz. a cup of water. Then swish for 20 seconds and swallow. It is important that you swallow since this gives the CoQ10 enzyme two opportunities to work. The CoQ Quinol is used by the cells to start their furnace. So the immune system is fired up to fight periodontal disease and start you on the road to health. If you are over 45, you may need to continue the CoQ Quinol for life.
There are two other supplements that are very helpful in total body health as well as oral health. They are immune complex and nucleotide complex. Immune complex supercharges your body with new energy supports your body’s defense against free radicals and helps invigorate your immune system. Nucleotide complex helps boost your immune system, improves circulation, stimulates transmitters in the brain, slows the aging process, improves t-cell manufacture, promotes new healthy skin growth and neutralizes internal toxins. with these two supplements, you will find yourself healing quickly and not susceptible to colds and flu. The gum tissue will respond very quickly so that the periodontal disease is more easily treated.
The last item for you to consider is a good mouth rinse. If you are using the CoQ Quinol rinse, that is fine, but if your tissue is healed and you use the CoQ quinol and a supplement ( by swallowing and not swishing) a product called Tooth and Gum is the mouth rinse of choice. It is herbal in nature and works by creating a good oral PH so that the bad bacterial are stifled in their productivity. With this new PH, the good bacteria thrive and so you will see pink tissue, very little bad breath, and longer-term fresh-feeling mouth.
