Homemade Tooth Products for Receding Gums

If you have periodontal gum disease, including receding gums, there are many dental options and over the counter products designed for your problems. However, dental work is often very expensive. Over the counter products often contain ingredients that cause more harm than good.

Making a few products at home is relatively inexpensive but can bring great results! You can also avoid harmful ingredients like fluoride, artificial sweeteners, and sodium laureth sulfate when you make your own tooth products.
