Dear Reader,
...ps remember, kids love this stuff
In OraMedia's Newsletter dated June 20, 2008, Tom Cornwell wrote an article entitled, "Dr. Judd, the Glycerin Hysteria & Brushing with Soap".
http://www.experts-at.com/Oral/ToothSoap.html
Tom says that he is familiar with Dr. Judd's work but was concerned about Dr. Judd's assertion that germs do not cause tooth cavities.
Tom's article concludes with a definition of glycerin from Wikipedia, describing all the benefits of glycerin.
http://www.experts-at.com/Oral/ToothSoap.html
I absolutely have some info on this that I must share. I hope to do another YouTube video soon discussing bacteria and cavity formation.
Firstly, Dr. Gerard F. Judd, Ph.D. does mention tooth decay at least 200 times in his book "Good Teeth Birth to Death". But he also said he was mistaken in using the term tooth "decay". He concluded that there was no such thing as "decay" of teeth. He said that there are only tooth "cavities" and they are caused by two things:
1 -- Acids applied to teeth from the foods you eat and things you drink, such as lemons, grapefruits, rhubarb, raw spinach (that are high in oxalic acid), sodas and other drinks.
2 -- Sharp instruments or probes used to pick off plaque from the teeth -- basically, sharp probes can dig holes in the enamel. These holes that are under the gums catch food and end up causing gum infection.
Secondly, Dr. Judd did not believe that any type of germs were involved in the process of Demineralization or cavity formation. Dr. Judd said that there are at least two evidences of this:
1 -- Billions of animal and human remains after 5,000 or more years still have their original teeth, even though exposed to bacteria and viruses in all kinds of conditions
and
http://www.experts-at.com/Oral/ToothSoap.html
2 -- There is no carbon in tooth enamel and therefore viruses and bacteria, which both require CARBON to exist are defeated. Dr. Judd emphatically stated that bacteria causing cavities is FALSE SCIENCE. He believed the study of Streptococcus mutans as a source of tooth cavities was a complete waste of government funding.
Dr. Judd also mentioned that even though bacteria from food does produce acid, this acid, like all other food acids is neutralized easily by a little sip of water. Acids react chemically with water to form hydronium ion and thus the enamel is saved.
It is no wonder that I get the question about bacteria causing cavities from many customers and visitors who frequent the ToothSoap.com website. If you ask any dentist or do a search online, it is stated that bacteria is the cause of cavities.
Even though Dr. Judd showed bacteria does not cause cavities, months ago I investigated the Streptococcus mutans bacteria and this theory held by most dentists today.
What I discovered about the S. mutans and the S. sobrinus bacteria was most interesting.
http://www.experts-at.com/Oral/ToothSoap.html
From Wikipedia:
"Along with S. sobrinus, S. mutans plays a major role in tooth decay, metabolizing sucrose to lactic acid. The ACIDIC environment created in the mouth by this process is what causes the highly mineralized tooth enamel to be vulnerable to decay."
But what was even more interesting is that there have been many attempts to make a VACCINE for the S. mutans bacteria! And ironically, these same scientists searching for this vaccine found the following:
"Proteins involved in the colonization of teeth by S. mutans have been shown to produce antibodies that inhibit the cariogenic process." Quite simply, the antibodies produced by the S. mutans prevent cavities!
What is obvious is that the pH of the mouth is very important. Saliva needs to be in the neutral range for proper remineralization. It is not just about bacteria. Saliva cannot be too acidic or too alkaline. Obviously, your body needs to be in the proper pH range at all times.
Studies from Newcastle University in the UK done on saliva and tooth dissolution prove that pH of the saliva is crucial when it comes to remineralization and demineralization of teeth. Saliva in the proper pH range of around 7.0 to 7.5 remineralizes teeth and saliva in the pH range of 5.2 to 5.5 is referred to as "critical pH", which DEmineralizes teeth.
http://www.experts-at.com/Oral/ToothSoap.html
Interestingly, saliva in the more alkaline ranges showed to produce calculus on the back of the lower front teeth. This is the region of the opening of the submandibular-sublingual salivary glands. If you are a person who gets plaque on the back of your lower front teeth, now you know why.
Saliva is also doing another important job in your mouth. It is neutralizing those acids that are forming from any bacteria that is in your
mouth. Having HEALTHY pH correct saliva is the KEY to remineralization of teeth.
But back to the bacteria issue. It is important for the health of your gums to use antibacterial products? ABSOLUTELY.
And I am going to tell you why I believe that Tooth Soap® is the best product to kill bacteria in the mouth. BTW, I can assure you that THIS IS NOT A SALES PITCH!
Aside from the fact that ALL SOAP kills 99.9% of germs, therapeutic essential oils also play a vital role in the Tooth Soap®.
For example:
http://www.experts-at.com/Oral/ToothSoap.html
Cinnamon EO is antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral and astringent.
Peppermint EO is antibacterial, analgesic, and antiseptic.
Spearmint EO is antibacterial, anti-catarrhal, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, and antiseptic.
Citrus EO is antibacterial, anti-depressant, antiseptic, antiviral, astringent, and restorative.
Ginger EO is antibacterial and antiseptic.
So between the antibacterial soap and the addition of therapeutic essential oils, it is my opinion that Tooth Soap® does a perfect job when it comes to killing critters!
We often market the concept of Tooth Soap leaving teeth feeling so clean you would think you went to the dentist, but we have neglected to inform everyone of the fact that Tooth Soap® is so powerful when it comes to being a bug zapper!
If you are a person who is looking for a serial killer of germs, you will want to pick up a bottle of our AMAZING Tooth Swish.
Why? From Tom's newsletter:
"According to Dr. Paul Keyes, one of the top oral microbiologists in the world with well over 50 years in the field, soap ain't bad, but isn't nearly as effective as good old baking soda or salt when it comes to killing the germs which cause tooth and gum disease."
So if the critter killing power of Tooth Soap® is not enough, start swishing with the ONLY oral care product available today that contains Original Himalayan Crystal Salt®, baking soda, and essential oils! (In another newsletter I will explain why you should only be using "Original Himalayan Crystal Salt®" whenever you use salt.)
I will conclude with a few comments about glycerin.
http://www.experts-at.com/Oral/ToothSoap.html
Is it true glycerin does NOT feed the bacteria that supposedly forms plaque that will cause dental cavities? The real issue is whether or not you believe cavities are formed by bacterial plaque (I don't). BTW, soap softens plaque, making it easy to be brushed away.
I have done the toothpaste test on my own sink and can see with my own two eyes that glycerin is sticky and leaves a definite residue behind. Teeth were never meant to be coated long term with anything other than saliva.
I do believe Dr. Judd when he said glycerin sticks to teeth and prevents remineralization. I believe it because I have had thousands of people contact me over the years telling me how they stopped using toothpaste and used Tooth Soap® instead, and were delighted to find their teeth were less sensitive.
The bottom line with glycerin is that it is CHEAP.It is a filler and costs practically nothing compared to whole food ingredients like Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil and high grade essential oils.
And when a toothpaste is made with 50% glycerin, it is my bet that the tube itself costs more than the cheap ingredients. As always, we get what we pay for.
http://www.experts-at.com/Oral/ToothSoap.html
Unfortunately, many manufacturers of personal and oral care products are not focused on using as many whole food ingredients as possible. Most products are formulated using nothing but dirt cheap chemicals. No regard is given to the possibility that the chemicals they are using are potentially harmful and that most chemicals used today have not been tested for long term safety.
At Vitality Products Inc., our focus has always been to create effective products using as many whole foods as possible. I demand that the products contain high end and whole food ingredients because I know that the whole foods are where the real "healing energy"
power is. The body is so incredible and will heal itself, when in the proper environment.
