Method

Step 1   Drink a large glass of water first thing in the morning to hydrate and stimulate your saliva production. Then take 1 Tablespoon of coconut oil (I prefer it melted) in your mouth. You might want to start with less in the beginning.

Step 2   Set a timer to 20 minutes and keeping your mouth closed, work the oil around in your mouth without swallowing it. Suck, push and pull the oil through your teeth and over every surface of your mouth. Be relaxed, but keep the oil and saliva working constantly in your mouth for a total of 15 to 20 minutes. If mucus forms in the back of your throat, spit out the oil, clear your throat, take another mouthful of oil and continue until you have done a total of 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 3 Spit the oil into a trash can or plastic bag and rinse out your mouth with warm water a few times and then with some warm salt water. Now you may gargle and swish the salt water around in your mouth and through your teeth to remove any residue of the oil. You may also like baking soda in your rinse water.
