Oral Care is Total Care!
Are you slowly but surely poisoning yourself daily through your oral care products? If you mouth-wash or toothpaste carries a disclaimer or a warning sign that says ‘DO NOT SWALLOW’ or provides an emergency number in case of accidental ingestion then it’s best you discontinue their use. Vaidya Mishra explained that “the ancient Indian seers of Ayurveda knew that the oral mucosa – the mucous membrane lining or “skin” inside of the mouth, including cheeks and lips – absorbs anything it comes in contact with. Whether it’s toxic or medicinal. What’s more, these ingredients get delivered immediately to all organs and organ systems in our body immediately. This is why, in ancient India, we never used anything that could be remotely toxic.”
Live plants and herbs and fresh powders were used. For example: chewing the fresh twigs of herbal plants such as Neem (Azadirachta indica), or Kahdir (Acacia nilotica), or Karanj (Pongamia glabra) to brush the teeth – these were the toothbrushes made by Mother Nature! Home-made herbal tooth powder was also made with these and other plants for brushing. Tongue-scraping or cleaning was a daily hygienic habit – using plant stems. Also using a tongue scraper made from copper or even better, silver. Flossing was done with Neem leaf stem. What about toothaches? They were treated with clove or clove leaf oil, and mixtures of herbal oils prepared with spices were used to gargle morning and evening. For gum infection or gingivitis , infusion of neem leaf, gymenma leaf, licorice root, and clove leaf were prepared. Science now also confirms the properties of all these ingredients. But what we tend to forget, adds Vaidya Mishra, is that not only did neem, Karanj, Babool, Shaal, and Sakhua have tremendous dental health benefits, but they also supported the health of the entire body.
Vaidya Mishra added: “I watched my father, Vaidya Kameshwar Mishra help patients with chronic liver problem by recommending they brush their teeth with a fresh stick of Guduchi stem every morning.”
Is this why Vaidya Mishra made his oral care products? 
He explained: “After I left India in 1994, and started offering ayurvedic well-being consultations here in America, I noticed far more dental health problems than in India. There are many reasons for this. Not only does modern life in the West lack the herbs and spices of ayurvedic oral care, but clean air and water, as well as freshly prepared intelligent pranic food as well. These are all key causal factors for supporting healthy gums and teeth.

An even greater root cause, however, is the use of toothpastes or mouth wash solutions full of chemicals and artificial ingredients – such as SLS, Parabens, synthetic flavors and oils, synthetic preservatives, colors. All these ingredients are meant to cleanse our oral cavity of “bad bacteria” but they also deplete the friendly bacteria, travel through our saliva and oral mucosa into the rest of our body within seconds, and deliver daily toxic load. This is why I was inspired to formulate authentic Ayurvedic oral hygiene products that are 100% edible. I use only organic and/or wild-crafted herbs and 100% natural preservatives. The Svadanta oral care line of toothpastes, mouth sprays and nectars is rich in both vibrational and physical Prana, capable of nourishing and healing the oral cavity, and rejuvenating the entire physiology. Vaidya emphasized that a healthy oral cavity is an indication of the body’s total health. Even scientists have confirmed this! 
We now know that the oral cavities reflect the health of the individual overall. The relationship between the body and our mouths is intimate: alterations in the oral mucosa lining the mouth can indicate systemic (pertaining to the whole body) conditions, such as: diabetes or vitamin deficiency; too much mental or emotional stress can lower the body’s pH causing inflammation in the gums; a bad diet high in processed sugar can also result in systemic inflammation that will affect the teeth. So what you eat, how you sleep, how much you exercise, all these play a major role for healthy strong teeth and gums. Conversely, the oral mucosa tends to heal faster and with less scar formation compared to the skin – as discovered by scientists. Even though they are not sure why this is so, they know that the oral cavity is a great place to start the healing process – this is one of the reasons why Vaidya Mishra uses transmucosal delivery of all his herbs in the form of the nectar drops. But this is also a major reason why you have to make sure your oral care products are 100% pure and natural. And you can see from the testimonials that these products do so much more than give you fresh breath… read the testimonials for yourself, try out a toothpaste or two, and then drop us a comment.
