I was determined to find a natural way to cure my problem that's when I accidentally found your website and started oil pulling for 20 minutes in the morning with sesame oil and used a few drops of wild oregano oil. Three months later the gap has closed and when I visited the dentist he was pleasantly surprised and he took another x-ray and the infection was still present and also he said the bone line started going down. Now I oil pull between the full moon and the new moon as the waning moon will aid the detoxification of body and the other half of lunar cycle will have very little effect on detoxification. You can read more in moonsigncalendar.net"
I have also receding gums more prominent along the lower front gum. I stopped using my electric tooth brush after reading a post and started using an Ayurvedic tooth paste. As per Ted's recommendations, I have also stated using milk of magnesia mixed with water as mouth wash. I can see some improvement but to accelerate the progress I took 200 mg of Magnesium Citrate and 100 mg of Vitamin B3 yesterday and an hour later I developed heat rash like symptoms by whole body became red, hot and itchy and I had a very high heart beat luckily the symptoms reduced after about an hour and all went away after about 2 hours. I checked the web for side effects of Magnesium Citrate and Vitamin B3. it said that 50mg or more of vitamin B3 will have side effects and it has listed the side effects http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/vitamin-b3 Some people might be intolerant to dosage more than 50 mg. I will continue with Magnesium Citrate and see what happens.
Something completely different problem, I have very dry skin and my hands are always very dry and I read the remedy for dry skin. Started rubbing a mixture of ACV and bicarbonate of soda and then applying cream and I have noticed that my hands a not dry any more.
Thanks for all the advice.

Warning
My gyms started receding because of gum disease so I thought id give oil pulling a try. It only took 5 days before every tooth in my was wobbly and gum recession is worse than ever. Now I'm looking at complete mouth reconstructive surgery. Jaw bone reconstruction, gum graph and implants for EVERY tooth. It drew out the infection that had reached my jaw bone. I didn't even know I had gum disease. I just thought I was brushing too hard or using a mouthwash with t0o many chemicals.

I tried a lot of things, but I finally found something that works. Oil Pulling with Virgin Coconut Oil first thing in the morning for 20 mins rinsing with warm water afterwards to get rid of any excess oil (It contains harmful toxins and bacteria) followed by rinsing your mouth with 1/2 a glass of very warm water and 1 to 2 teaspoons of Sea Salt through the teeth and the recession areas in particular.
It will sting a lot but rinse for a good few mins until the glass is empty and don't rinse with regular water after wards I find the gums continue to heal if you do that.
I do that morning and night and also do the same Sea Salt water rinse after every meal to adjust the Ph level in your mouth so no harmful bacteria can grow at any times, I've only been doing this for two days now and my gums have grown back over 50%, when they grow back it is very rapidly and painful kind of inflamed.
I wish you all the best.

Very effective and simple to do 3 times a day until gums are restored. Absolutely must hold in mouth for 15 to 20 minutes. It goes from an oil to a watery substance that is white colored. Then you know it worked.
Growing new gums is a slow process, but the anti-bacteria, anti-fungus, and anti-virus qualities make this a real infection fighter. Along with your good oral hygene to grow new gums, be sure to use a tongue scrapper to remove surplus build up of any bad stuff living on your tongue that would end up inside your gums by spreading.
