      This is added into water (1 teaspoon into a glass of warm water) other essential oils that can be sued (tea tree, myrrh, bergamot)

      Another mouthwash

      2 drops of essential oil of myrrh to 1 tablespoon of vodka .  Take two drops of this mixture and add to a gass of water to rinse your mouth
