I abhor dentists. I use a Hydrofloss, which is patented and works much better at removing plaque than regular floss or those deep root planings they use on people with periodontitis which basically cut the gums and allows more bacteria to enter the blood stream. In my Hydrofloss I use betadine and a few drops of bleach and in the past I've used colloidal silver as well. The Hydrofloss is an amazing little machine. Also, score another one for Tony as he's been saying for quite a while that according to his testing Sensodyne tooth paste is by far the best at killing bacteria, and now studies have recently come out (cited in their advertising), saying pretty much the same thing Tony was saying. The ads say not only can Sensodyne prevent damage but it can actually help harden and repair the enamel once it's been damaged by the bacteria/plaque buildup. I

personally use salt toothpaste, which is my other favorite toothpaste, along with the Sensodyne. Both of these work far better at removing plaque than any other toothpaste I've ver used, and I've basically used them all. penny <usenethod@...> wrote: That was interesting.
