Wink Wink Hi All,

I have been to ill to be on MDJunction until today, great to be back.

I am having gum swelling, yellow & green drainage around the gums, & tooth decay.

I have been to the dentist & she has never treated anyone with Lyme Disease before, she is crowning the teeth & I am on so many ABXs already.

She states she does not know what else to do for me.

I remember not long ago someone from the group post a homeopathic mixture of something that worked for them.

I checked my emails & I can not find that discussion. Could anyone help me that has had experience with that, PLEASE!!!

HUGS TO ALL,

Leah123

Leah - I've had a lot of teeth issue also. If you are already on ABXs why don't you try rinsing with Nano Silver or better yet, water down H2O2 & rinse/brush with it.

Honestly, the watered down H2O2 work the best for me. It will also remove any plaque, build up if you have it on your teeth. Best wishes, Dear!!!

If you go to a holistic or biological dentist you might find someone who is lyme literate. I found one here in Florida. This link below has some suggestions on how to clean your gums and mouth.

Oral spirochetes are most likely what's causing your gum infections. I had this problem too and had to have the infection surgically removed from my gums. It was a lyme related infection.

Read this article where it talks about using bleach and water to clean your mouth. http://www.martinimplants.com/oral-spirochetes.php

Smile Smile Hi,

Thanks all,

I have tried half hydrogen peroxid & H20 water, as well as warm salt H2O water & rinced several times a day with that.

I have not tried the other suggestions & will try them. I do not think I can afford a Dentist who specializes in this right now.

Maybe a phone consult, my medical bills are really more than I can handle right now.

Thanks All,

Huggs,

Leah

You can also make a mouth wash of Turmeric and Ground Mustard...this is going to be HOT HOT HOT...I would do 1/4 tsp of each in WARM water...its rather shocking...but I have been SO desperate...that I have done it regardless..

I have used it for deep abscesses and other gum infections and it really helps...

Also, if it is painful...pure vanilla extract and pure peppermint extract can help alleviate it some...

This is a gal on a Lyme Facebook forum who's experienced with essential oils. This is her personal recipe for healthy gums.

~~From MARGE JAROCH EVELAND:

I would like to post my personal, effective Essential Oil Mixture that I can personally vouch for, during times of gum "insult" and/or dental discomfort. It is powerful and "does the job" to bring relief!

ESSENTIAL OIL BLEND for HEALTHY GUMS:

20 drops EACH: Clove Bud

Lemon

Rosemary

Eucalyptus

10 drops of: Cinnamon

5 drops of: Myrrh

2 drops of: Wild Oregano

Mix all of the above oils in a glass container & store in a glass bottle. As you prepare to brush your teeth, give the container a "swirl" to be sure & mix the oils. Then, add (1) drop of this combo to your toothbrush 'before' you apply toothpaste.

It is very important that you use a glass bottle; not plastic or metal.

Also, try to use this up in a timely manner, as the oil of myrrh is viscous & over time may coagulate; Ie sort of "clump," which would then need to be stirred. If stirring is needed, use a wooden toothpick.

When using this, you should immediately feel a distinct tingling. The myrrh causes it to have a bit of strong taste, but afterwards this is very soothing to inflamed or otherwise irritated gum tissue!~~

Hope this helps someone.

Gary
