Try using coconut oil pulling. I use 10 ml coconut oil in mouth and swish it around for several minutes….ideally 5 to 10 minutes….do not swallow …then spit it out in trash….following this, I brush teeth with very soft brush. Finally rinse mouth with non alcohol mouth wash…..this procedure has helped with inflammation and pain. Can be done morning and at bedtime…..you can buy pulling coconut oil on Amazon…..

@silver17 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! I know you’ve been ‘hanging around’ Connect for a few months now and finally have something to say! For what reason do you use coconut oil and how long have you used it?
Do you have an autoimmune disease that the members can help you with?
