Fluoride is a deadly poison. After struggling with dental problems for some years --I have had no dental issues (i.e. CAVITIES} for years. Some essential oils from plants--specifically helichrysum and sage are anti-microbial agents.
Here is something that worked. Apply a few drops of helichrysum or sage to teeth by spreading it with a sterile cloth or fingers. Then apply DMSO the same area. Helichrysum and sage kill and/or discourage the growth of bacterial organisms that cause decay while the DMSO drives it in. Does not taste bad and is nontoxic.
Please see article by MIDWESTERN DOCTOR on the benefits of DMSO.
Here is the article about the nontoxicity of this natural product. I have heard that various well known athletes carry a glass bottle of DMSO in their gym bags because it REALLY WORKS to relieve pain and as a carrier agent for medicines. DMSO Must be used with extreme care as it will deposit substances directly into the blood stream. For example if you had axel grease on your hands...and then put DMSO on them, this poison would be in your blood almost instantly. DMSO can be bought in many places...including the loathsome AMAZON.
I wrote this below but will repeat: Increasing numbers of studies show that fluoride is a neurotoxin, and that neurodevelopmental disabilities, such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other cognitive issues can be ascribed to fluoride. [The Lancet Review| Volume 13, Issue 3, P330-338, March 2014] Fluoride has also been linked to the onset of Alzheimer's Disease. [Int J Mol Sci. 2018 Dec 9;19(12):3965.] IQ impairment is another related issue. [Sci Rep. 2021 Nov 22;11(1):22659] One study shows that children living in high-fluoride areas where fluorosis is prevalent are five-times more likely to develop a low IQ than children living in non-fluoridated areas. [Biol Trace Elem Res. 2008 Winter;126(1-3):115-20.]
At levels of less than 0.5 mg/L, fluoride in drinking water also negatively impacts the thyroid and our production of hormones T3 and T4 (which regulate metabolism and energy production in the body) and TSH, which tells the thyroid to produce hormones in the first place. [Sci Rep. 2018 Feb 8;8(1):2674.] Fluoride exposure has been linked to hypothyroidism in pregnant women, possibly disrupting fetal development. [Science of The Total Environment Vol 869, 15 April 2023, 161149] Fluoride has also been found to create calcification of the pineal gland in the brain¬. Young boys who drink fluoridated water are five times more likely to develop bone cancer. [https://www.ewg.org/news-insights/news-release/harvard-study-strong-link-between-fluoridated-water-and-bone-cancer-boys]. Even the National Institutes of Health in the US (NIH), admits that "large amounts of fluoride from dental products or dietary supplements" can cause stomach and abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, joint pain, stiffness, nerve problems, muscle loss, and even death. [https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Fluoride-Consumer/] Please, sir, wake up to the truth about fluoride.
You can find plant essential oils from many places --Mountain Rose in Oregon does mail order. Every product I have ever gotten from them--including herbal teas, and various dried plants and essential oils have been delivered promptly and well packaged. You can order on the phone.
Plague is a different issue...you are correct. I think some of it actually comes from the debris the bacteria leave on your teeth and gums.If you kill the bacteria your plaque is greatly reduced. Weston Price-- a health writer who has traveled widely says the isolated from civilization tribes he came in contact with had BEAUTIFUL PERFECT TEETH!
Bacteria LOVE sugar. If you eating this highly processed food--stop immediately. That is not as hard as it sounds...there are other products to sweeten your food--some of them really are nontoxic.
Another suggestion I could give you--of course I have no medical training-- is to buy some activated charcoal and use it on your toothbrush. Activated charcoal does destroy bacteria and that is why it is in fish tank filters. Of course your mouth will immediately turn black...but that is a lot better than plaque and can be immediately rinsed out. I will take temporarily black mouth any day over the stuff fluoride does to your health and longevity. It has been widely known for years that fluoride attacks the bones and skeletal system--that is why so many of the elderly may suffer from falling down and breaking a bone. This is so awful...I feel so bad for them. I note that the state of Florida has now removed fluoride from their drinking water.
I use the plant oil/dmso mix often--once or twice a day...especially if I am eating food with highly processed sugar in it...which I usually try to avoid. Can't always do that, though. When you eat at other peoples' homes it is rude to turn down their offerings. Usually they are created with love.
Flossing is not as good as using those tiny brushes, like bottle brushes but very small, sold in a range of sizes to fit in different-sized gaps between the teeth. These are much more effective than flossing to remove food particles. Assiduously cleaning the teeth after eating in my experience virtually eliminates decay. No chemicals are required, but strict attention to cleaning between the teeth is essential.
Flossing creates micro tears in gums that bad bacteria can enter. Funny how wild animals don't brush teeth and are fine. Could it be the processed human food???
Fluoride should never be recommended. Dr. McCullough has an incredible wealth of knowledge when it comes to health issues. However, here he has strayed badly from his area of expertise - because he still trusts recommendations from the ADA. A deeper dive into this subject is needed, so that loyal readers are not inadvertently led astray.
Is this a typo? "Protective factors include fluoride exposure from community water fluoridation and toothpaste, which strengthens enamel and reduces caries risk." Fluoride displaces calcium making bones (including teeth) brittle.
I spent a fortune on dentistry and it did not save my teeth. Once you start getting fillings, it is all downhill. My parents knew nothing about nutrition back in the 1940s I was taken to the dentist at 11 for my first filing...and it kept on going; by the time I was 20, my mouth was loaded with silver fillings. Toxic Dentistry! No dentist ever mentioned the word nutrition. I got into the study of nutrition at 27 in 1961...and eliminated white sugar, white flour, and chemicals that I couldn't pronounce their names on labels. However, it was too late for me, but I learned. The daughter I live with is 65 and has beautiful teeth and has never had a filling. The right nutrition was paramount. At 75, I came across info on root canals...and I had a mouthful. I told the dentist pull all my teeth out!!! He wanted to do it slowly, but I told him to do it NOW! I could not eat for three months...and wound up in the hospital. However, I am happy now, because I have not seen the insides of a dental office, since 2008! It has saved me a great deal of pain, which I experienced over the years going to dentists...and no more costly dental visits.
Dear Dr. McCullough—I've always been impressed with your work—until now. Fluoride as a "protective factor" against dental caries? How about ever-increasing numbers of studies show that fluoride is a neurotoxin, and that neurodevelopmental disabilities, such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other cognitive issues can be ascribed to fluoride.

There is a Spry mouthwash with CoQ10, sage and other herbs mentioned by Kathleen Nathan above. However, in addition to xylitol, it also has erythritol that was reported to be toxic. I think the report was that its use increases the risk of heart attacks, but I could be wrong. In any event, people were warned not to use it.
dental disease comes from glucose that comes from carbs: rice/bread/pasta etc etc and from sucrose (that is glucose/fructose)
dental disease appeared with sucrose: Queen Elizabeth I of England; (died 1601) was fed sugar and had rotten teeth;
ditch the glucose; go very low-carb; no sugar; no rice'bread/pasta; you will be amazed; dental decay will disappear; rinse your mouth with salt; those near the sea: collect seawater as a mouth rinse whilst cleaning teeth;
I'm not medical but choose fluoride free toothpaste Vicco or Dant Kanti, both Indian and Ayurvedic and as long as a pure and natural toothpaste is used then isn't it likely MMS or CDS (even used as a mouth wash) could result in good oral hygiene and more?
Many fluoride free tooth pastes are made with very tiny silica particles that will degrade your enamel. It is hard to get good toothpaste w.o. fluoride or silica. Activated charcoal will work. It will kill bacteria and will also make your mouth temporarily black as coal. Luckily, this substance washes out easily with water. Check your toothpaste and see if it contains the enamel destroying silica particles and the BRAIN destroying fluoride--most have both.

Thanks for this suggestion.
Do you know if this protocol is also good for reducing plaque?
Also, how often do you use it and when?

Yes, which was well known by our ancestors.

Years ago my Dentist referred COQ10 for my gum problems. Since then I take it on a regular basis and it totally stopped the problem with my gums.
There is a Spry mouthwash with CoQ10, sage and other herbs mentioned by Kathleen Nathan above. However, in addition to xylitol, it also has erythritol that was reported to be toxic. I think the report was that its use increases the risk of heart attacks, but I could be wrong. In any event, people were warned not to use it.
