Soap as Toothpaste! Keeps breath fresh

Submitted by Fry

Toothpastes often contain sweeteners the enhance the taste. Although the sweeteners themselves to not cause plaque, they usually stay as a slime on your teeth and feed the bacteria.

Brushing your teeth with Soap can kill the bacteria in your mouth and keep plaque and tartar from forming, as well as keeping your breath subtly fresh. 

I brush my teeth with soap, and now I can go the whole day without worrying about bad breath. While I was using regular toothpaste, my mouth was reeking by the afternoon. I switched toothpastes, mouthwashes, everything until I started brushing with soap.

Simply wet your brush, rub it on a little bit of bar soap (any soap will do) and brush normally. Vary soaps until you find a taste you can enjoy. Your teeth and gums will be healthier (and whiter). 

*Brush once a week with regular toothpaste and then again with soap to retain needed fluoride. 

*Floss before you brush to make space for the foam, and then again after to remove loosened tartar.

liquid soap Comments By: trainz man Would liquid soap work as good as bar soap???   nice tip Comments By: shane from research I have found that if your teeth are sqeakey clean ( if they actually sqeak when you rub your finger on them) then your teeth will uptake the minerals from your saliva and give you strong yet flexable enamel. Most all toothpaste has glycerine in it wich coats the teeth and prevents this uptake from occuring but if you brush with bar soap, this glycerin layer is not their and fluoride is not needed. Flouride makes your teeth harder but less flexable and more brittle. It's not an essential nutrient but it is listed as a corrosive poison. That is why it gets through the glycerin layer with ease.
