The smell is gone?
Throwaway cuz this is embarrassing to admit but im pretty sure i have late stage periodontal disease my gum are receding and i have yet to get a professional cleaning done.
the only thing I’ve been doing is :
* oil pulling constantly first with coconut oil but i ran out and replaced it with virgin olive oil
* brushing after every meal & drink (coffee)
* ive cut out most processed sugar i havent eaten sweets in so long….
* I drink green tea google says its beneficial but watch out for tannis
* when i dont brush after a meal i rinse with salt & water
* I avoid sticky food and sweets and stick to stuff like cucumbers and regular yogurt
And thus my foul mouth smell after waking up is gone !!!! The rest of the symptoms are still there, i still have plaque and the receding isnt improving per se, but at least now i dont have to gag every morning
The smell been consistent for months and im at a loss for why it stopped, is it because theres no more tissue left? Or is it because i starved out the bacteria? Like am i getting better or is this the last grace period i have before it gets significantly worse, of course im still going to the dentist eventually I just need to save up a little bit more first
