Olive leaf is the ideal plant for Miswak: (tooth brushing stick)
A miswak or siwak is not something that most people are use to. Miswak is a twig of the olive tree that is used to clean your teeth with. Miswak is used in much the same manner as a tooth brush. Studies have shown this to be the superior way in brushing, in the prevention of gum diseases. This is being considered as an alternative medicine for the healing of gums. Miswak also, strengthens the teeth enamel.
When you first get your miswak, you should cut back one inch from the top and take the outer bark off. After the bark is peeled back, you can take the tooth brushing stick and start going over the teeth. Start at the top of the gum and come down, as you would in brushing. Coat or brush all of the teeth, front and back and then do the tongue. This should be done a few times a day.
Benefits of using the Miswak:
- Kills bacteria causing gum disease
- Gets rid of plaque
- Helps against cavities
- Helps to remove bad breath
- The bristle action is a great way to clean your teeth
