If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants.

Buyer beware.
My teeth had become uncomfortably sensitive on one side of my mouth. I started putting 1 drop of Wintergreen on my Thieves Dentarome Ultra toothpaste every time I brushed my teeth.
I could not tell a difference until 2 weeks had passed. Then the sensitivity was suddenly gone. Even though the sensitivity was gone, I continued to use the Wintergreen on my teeth for a while, since I have read that Wintergreen is very good for your teeth.
Later, I had a few mild relapses of a little sensitivity, when I stopped using the Wintergreen. Since then I had read that the Thieves Dentarome toothpaste is better for people with sensitive teeth, so I realized that the Thieves Dentarome Ultra toothpaste was just too strong for my sensitive teeth.
After I started brushing with the Thieves Dentarome toothpaste and began using Wintergreen again, I did not have any more problems.
Several months later, my teeth began to feel sensitive again, even though I was using the Wintergreen, so this time I tried Myrrh. I just rubbed 1 drop of Myrrh on my bottom gums and teeth and rubbed 1 drop on my top gums and teeth. That one application took care of the sensitivity for several months.
After about 6 months, my teeth began to feel sensitive yet again and so I used the Myrrh one time, like before and the effects lasted about the same length of time again. Myrrh is now my go to oil for sensitive teeth.

| 1. | Associated topics: sensitive-teeth,tooth-/-teeth — Study 1: "[Oil pulling] would benefit the general population by giving more confidence in the ancient practices, thus preventing tooth decay and loss." Study 2: "Oil pulling therapy has been equally effective like chlorhexidine on halitosis and organisms, associated with halitosis." Study 3: "The oil pulling therapy showed a reduction in the plaque index, modified gingival scores, and total colony count of aerobic microorganisms in the plaque of adolescents with plaque-induced gingivitis." Study 4: "Oil pulling can be used as an effective preventive adjunct in maintaining and improving oral health." Study 5: "The myth that the effect of oil-pulling therapy on oral health was just a placebo effect has been broken, and there are clear indications of possible saponification and emulsification process, which enhances its mechanical cleaning action." | Link |

No significant difference was observed between clove and benzocaine regarding pain scores. Clove gel might possess a potential to replace benzocaine as a topical [anesthetic] agent before needle insertion." | Link |
