Inflamed gums are highly uncomfortable and a danger to your whole system. But you can easily treat them if you have betonite clay at hand. Mix two drops of tea tree essential oil with some distilled water and clay to form a small „mud ball“. Place this ball firmly against the inflamed area of the mouth or even put the clay in the spaces between your teeth and let it sit there for about 10-15 minutes to let the clay pull out toxins or the inflammation. Discard the clay ball and rinse the mouth thoroughly with some salt brine afterwards.
Clay has a long history of internal and external purification and should have a comeback into our everyday live as an easy and inexpensive way to address inflammation issues inside and out. Go ahead, give it a try!
Be well and see you soon!
