After a serious of bad choices and some dumb mistakes i lost my job and couldn't afford my monthly trips to the orthodontist, (never choose Western Dental) if you don't pay they won't see you... So after a few months my gums were bleeding and my teeth were shifting and I was in tremendous pain.. A friend suggested hydrogen peroxide and after I tried it. it worked wonderfully and my teeth stopped bleeding after a few days. I heard from some people it even helps whitten your teeth. I can't tell with all this metal but I know my teeth are not bleeding and I feel so much better...

Hydrogen Peroxide & Baking Soda

Years ago I worked for a dentist who swore the best toothpaste was Peroxide and baking soda. He suggested keeping a container of baking soda by the sink and dip the toothbrush in the peroxide and then in the baking soda to form a paste. I've been doing it ever since with no regrets. Not to mention how much I save :-)

Hydrogen Peroxide and baking soda for dental care

My darling groom and I also keep these on hand for dental care. Funny how "old fashioned" methods are coming back into "fashion" again, especially with the focus on going green.

Tooth sensitivity

Does anyone know how this affects tooth sensitivity? Do these products improve it?
