According to Rose, it can. Rose has Crohn’s disease, which affects many parts of the body including the gums. Read her testimonial about Oram Plus. Dentists will tell you that if you have gum disease, you will have to go to the dental hygienist every three months for the rest of your life. Not if you use Oram Plus, though. The progression of this disease can be halted and healing can take place.
Are you one of those people who has a hard time keeping your breath fresh? Chances are you have gum disease. If you do, your breath might feel fresh right after you suck on a mint, but it isn’t long before it begins to trouble you again.
By the way, how can a person tell they have bad breath if a friend or family member doesn’t tell them? One dead give-away is a bad taste in your mouth. You can also lick your finger and then smell it. Yuck? Well, fortunately there are things you can do.
For one thing, you can make sure you always brush your tongue and the roof of your mouth any time you brush your teeth. In fact, if your gum disease has already run its course and you’ve already lost your teeth, you can still brush out the inside of your mouth! There are also special tongue cleaners on the market for cleansing any bad smelling bacteria off your tongue.
Curing the gum disease, though, will let you keep your teeth longer, and will also help in curing bad breath. The best treatment you can give your gums is to brush with a natural essential oil blend formulated just for gum health. My son is having great results treating his gum disease!

Healing is greatly sped up when you use certain essential oils. One of these oils, found in the formula called Oram Plus, is thymus vulgaris, or thyme oil. Thyme grows wild in southern Europe, but is grown in gardens around the world. Thyme is in the mint family, but has a range of medicinal properties unique from the rest of the mints. The oil contains chemicals called phenols which account for its anti-microbial activity. The germ fighting power of thyme oil is reported to be strong.
In the past, thyme has been used as a temple incense, to ward off diseases, and to encourage the heart of a knight heading off to battle. Now it is considered among the best oils to do away with bacteria. Since bacteria is at the heart of gum disease, it makes sense that thyme oil would be included in an oil blend designed for gum health.
Gum disease has some irritating symptoms, such a chronic halitosis and unsightly spaces between the teeth. In fact, the teeth can become discolored and icky looking. Oram Plus is a natural healing compound that fights gum disease, and even works to reverse it.
Natural essential oils are able to penetrate with their healing power, while other medications simply work where they are applied. This means that Oram Plus, which is made of essential oils, is able to get under the gum line into those pockets where the bacteria are growing. Then it kills these bacteria, the very ones that cause gingivitis and gum disease!
Because Oram Plus kills those bacteria, the problem with bad breath is eliminated. And in addition to all these benefits, Oram Plus also includes ingredients that kill pain! This means that you can get rid of discomfort as well as giving your gums the best chance at bouncing back from gum disease.
Oram Plus comes in a little bottle, and might seem expensive, but you only need a drop or two when you brush your teeth. It’s that powerful! It’s really quite economical, and has a fresh, natural taste, too.
According to statistics, people are keeping their teeth longer these days than ever before. Among people who are over 65, less than a fourth of them have lost all their teeth! Most can honestly say that they have better dental health than the generation before them.
Unfortunately, there aren’t that many dentists who are skilled in geriatric dentistry (or dentistry for older people.) Older people have different needs than younger dental patients. Some of these problems are the presence of a chronic illness and the patient being on a variety of medications. These factors affect dental treatment.
Gum disease is often linked with other illnesses, such as diabetes and heart disease. Gum disease is the most common chronic condition among people, with most people developing it if they live long enough. However, good oral hygiene will definitely help to postpone it as long as possible.
Another problem seen in older dental patients is dificulty eating because of missing teeth, gum disease, or reduced saliva output. Add to this the slower recovery rate for older people, coupled with financial woes, and you can see that older people often do not get the dental care they need. Healthy gums and teeth contribute greatly to the overall quality of a person’s life regardless of age.
Periodontal Disease : Informative article by Dr. Zablotsky, Sacramento Periodontist is a great website for learning the facts about gum disease. Scroll down a bit and you’ll see a drawing of teeth which changes to show the progression from healthy gums to gingivitis to periodontal disease. Remember, though, that just because you have symptoms of gingivitis, it’s not a death sentence or anything! Not everyone who has gingivitis goes on to develop gum disease, and with preventive measures, such as good dental hygiene, and using healing oils, you can halt the process.
Here are a few common questions people ask about gum disease, along with the answers.
1. Is gum disease a common condition?
Yes! As many as seventy percent of all people eventually develop it. This makes it the most common problem people have with their oral health.
2. How can I keep from getting gum disease?
Cleanliness is the key to preventing this malady. Always brush and floss every day, and get your teeth cleaned by a dental hygienist as often as recommended. Use the brushing techniques your dentist shows you, too. As for the type of toothpaste to use, there are reasons to stay away from commercial toothpastes. A healing blend of essential oils can be used instead.
3. What if I already have gum disease?
The first step is a professional cleaning by a dental hygienist. After this, brush twice a day with healing natural product, and floss daily, too. The professional cleaning will remove the built-up tarter that makes gum disease worse.
This questionaire could work for people where I live. Yes, it asks about teeth. See how you do on the Arkansas Residency Application. (In reality, high class people in Arkansas! And no matter where you live, if you want to take good care of your teeth, start now to fight gum disease.)
If your gums and teeth are healthy, there’s a good chance your whole body is healthy. Likewise, if they are unhealthy, it can be an inroad to other medical problems in the future.
There are at least 500 different strains of bacteria that can live in the plaque on your teeth. Brushing your teeth helps control those bacteria on the outside of your teeth, but for those areas you can’t easily reach - like between your teeth - you need to take extra measures. Of course, I’m talking about flossing. And about making sure you make the effort to get the backs and insides of your teeth when you brush.
In your mouth, those 500 types of bacteria cause gingivitis, with its symptoms of swollen, red gums that bleed easily. Without proper dental hygiene, the infection can progress into periodontitis, which affects the tissue and bone around the teeth.
Unfortunately, those nasty little beasties don’t stop there. They can migrate to other parts of the body, including the valves of the heart! Gum disease has been found to double a person’s risk of having a fatal heart attack.
Believe it or not, diabetes has been found to be linked to gum disease as well. It raises the sugar in the body and makes controlling blood sugar difficult. One recent study showed effective treatment of periodontal disease reduced the amount of insulin some diabetics needed.
One other health problem that has been linked to poor oral health is a strain on pregnancy. Women with gum disease often give birth to premature, low birth weight babies. In fact, poor oral health increases this risk by seven times!
The bottom line is - take care of those pearly whites and those gums that support them!
