The Benefits of Ora-Shield Ingredients for Dental Health
Organic peppermint oil
Peppermint oil is the most popular essential oil for dental health and has a long history of cleansing contaminants from people’s mouths. By itself it leaves a very clean, cool fresh taste. Peppermint oil has no negative effects on the beneficial bacteria in your mouth.
Organic spearmint oil
Spearmint oil has similar properties to peppermint oil, but has a sweeter taste that offsets the strong minty flavor of peppermint oil. It tames down Ora-Shield, but adds different active ingredients to help balance the oral microbiome in a slightly different way.
Organic oregano oil
Oregano oil is still from the mint family, so it blends well with peppermint and spearmint. A little bit goes a long ways to providing active ingredients that help balance the oral microbiome. Its herbal aroma sets it apart from its minty cousins.
Organic tea tree oil
Tea tree oil is famous for removing contaminants and helping promote the growth of only beneficial bacteria in a multitude of personal care products. Our organic Australian tea tree oil is strong, so only a little bit is added so it doesn’t overwhelm the senses while still getting the benefits of this amazing oil.
Why MCT Oil is the Best Carrier Oil for Ora-Shield:
Organic medium chain triglyceride oil: MCT oil is a superior carrier oil for essential oils for 4 reasons.
First, it is thinner than sweet almond oil so it comes out of the bottle faster. You will thank us every time you use it, since other tooth oils require more patience. Every. Single. Time. This is especially helpful in cold houses or rooms.
Second, the thinner MCT oil does a better job carrying the essential oil ingredients down into the gingival pockets and crevices and around parts of your mouth that are hard to reach and brush.
Third, as a blend of shorter chain fatty acids, compared to almond oil, MCT oil is also more miscible with water which makes it easier to penetrate into all areas around the teeth and gums.
Fourth, MCT oil is the most beneficial part of coconut oil and by itself has antimicrobial properties. Balancing your oral microbes will help maintain fresh breath, keep away bacteria that make holes in teeth, and help promote gum health. Our MCT comes purely from coconut oil.
Why organic?
These organic essential oils tend to have a higher potency of active ingredients compared to conventionally grown, harvested, and processed essential oils.
Not only do you get the major active ingredients in the oils, but the organic forms tend to have a higher amount of minor ingredients that are likewise beneficial to your oral health.
And organic essential oils don’t have any residuals of pesticides or herbicides or other chemicals to worry about. Pure, clean, healthy.
