HERBAL HEALER

Take water and use herbs like parsley and mint to make an herbal mouthwash. These are herbs that have natural antibacterial properties and support oral health.

BAKING SODA AND TEA TREE OIL

Put water and baking soda with a few drops of tea tree oil into a dish for baking soda mouthwash. Baking soda helps to remove the acid compounds, and tea tree oil has anti-bacterial properties.

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR

Add water to dilute the apple cider vinegar and use it as an acidic mouthwash. Apple cider vinegar balances pH levels in the mouth.
