Clove is one of the best allies for oral hygiene: as a toothpaste or mouthwash, it helps fight bad breath and keep the mouth healthy.
Additionally, caseum can stem from an unhealthy gut flora, which is why a course of probiotics is recommended.
But also, a yearly colon detox will be essential, as it helps maintain good oral hygiene and fight halitosis.
What the science says: mouth and teeth
What published research says about the remedies mentioned above, for context only — these studies look at material causes, while healing belongs to Allah.
Mouth and teeth
Siwak reduces plaque and gum inflammation (Saudi Med J, 2015) (J Ethnopharmacol, 2022); propolis is being studied for oral health (J Funct Biomater, 2024), and honey for mouth sores. Salt water mouth rinses, cloves for tooth pain, less sugar: the basics. Precaution: a cavity, an abscess, or a gum that bleeds persistently should be treated by a dentist — natural remedies offer relief in the meantime, they don't repair the problem.
