Homemade Mouthwash
Homemade Toothpaste
- Mix ¼ teaspoon hydrogen peroxide and ½ teaspoon baking soda, scoop the paste up with your toothbrush and proceed as you normally would.
Homemade Minty Toothpaste
- To make toothpaste with a more traditional toothpaste consistency and a mint-y taste, mix together 6 teaspoons of baking soda, 1/3 teaspoon salt, 4 teaspoons glycerin, and 15 drops of peppermint or wintergreen extract.
- Depending on how much you use at a time, this recipe is good for 15-20 applications and should be stored in any appropriately sized container with a snug lid.
Homemade Cinnamon Mouthwash
- Boil 5 cinnamon sticks with 1 cup water in a covered pan.
- You can make up to a 3-day supply by increasing the amount of cinnamon sticks and water, but keeping the ratio the same.
- Remove the pan from the heat after about 5 minutes of boiling and remove the lid.
- Discard the cinnamon sticks and let the liquid cool.
- Store your mouthwash in a clean bottle and use as desired.
