I can’t wait to go to the dentist and have them drill a hole in my tooth…said NO ONE ever! Yet that’s what thousands of people do every day - because they have a cavity. After all, when your dentist tells you that you need to get that cavity filled, you listen, right?

Not so fast! Because I’m here to tell you that cavities can be healed…naturally! First, let me tell you what a cavity actually is. A cavity happens when the hard surface of the tooth becomes softer and softer until a tiny hole develops. This is a sign of ongoing demineralization.

If you are reading this, we know you want a healthy mouth. But (truth be told!) - what you really want are white, sparkly teeth and fresh breath so you can look and feel your best!

And let’s chalk one up for vanity in this case, because the reality is, NOT having sparkly white teeth and fresh breath can be detrimental to your overall health. We’re talking seriously detrimental - as in being the cause of heart disease, strokes, dementia, diabetes, infertility, and even arthritis. 

Your mouth is a primary entryway into the body. Teeth that ache, gums that bleed, and bad breath are all indicators of poor oral health. This leads to bacteria that can easily get into the bloodstream and cause infection and inflammation wherever it spreads.

We talk a lot about Big Dental - because just like Big Pharma, Big Food, Big Cosmo - these “big” industries are slowly killing us. You may think - “My nice dentist? No way.” 

Here’s the truth - Big Dental has nothing to do with your “nice” dentist. It has to do with a broken system that cares more about profits than progress. With years of half-truths and blatant lies, what we now know as "dental health" is so ingrained that no one has bothered to question it.

And so, while your well-intentioned dentist may not be trying to harm you on purpose, the misinformed industry’s proliferation of lies and misinformation is in fact, negatively affecting your health. But that’s why you’re here. To learn the secrets your dentist WON’T tell you - maybe simply because he/she doesn’t know!

Do your gums bleed when you brush or floss? Does your breath stink faster than it should after brushing? Do your teeth feel extra sensitive to cold or hot liquids? Do the roots of your teeth show, or are your gums visibly shrinking over time? 

Enamel is the outer surface of your teeth, and it’s actually the hardest mineral substance in your body. Yup, that means that it’s stronger than bone too! This enamel is what protects your teeth from cavities. 

If you have answered yes to any of these questions, you may be brushing incorrectly. 

Bleeding gums after brushing or flossing, mouth pain, bad breath, seeing the roots of your teeth, and loose teeth…

Sound familiar? If so, chances are you have gum recession. So, you run to your dentist and ask if there is anything they can do to help you…and most likely they say “Unfortunately no. Just don’t brush so hard.”

NOOOOO…don’t believe those lies! Unfortunately, the dental industry is stuck in an outdated paradigm. One that doesn’t understand that YES - you can heal a cavity AND fix gum recession.

If you don’t stop the process that causes gum recession, it will just continue to get worse. You will end up with damage to the enamel and the root - degeneration of your bone - inflammation and abscesses.

The moment you’ve dreaded has arrived, and it’s time for your semi-annual dental checkup. Regardless of the brushing and flossing you’ve attempted to mandate in your home, you’re anxious that it just wasn’t enough to avoid those dreaded words, “Ah, I found something....” 

For decades, hearing that you have a cavity engaged an unstoppable chain reaction of Novocain and tooth fillers provided by your well-meaning but uninformed dentist. Here at Primal Life, I decided I had to stop this cycle and teach you not just how to heal your cavities, but how to prevent them from ever forming again with several natural and non-invasive solutions.  

Our mainstream healthcare system has a major problem. 

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is a relatively new ingredient that is taking traditional and holistic dentistry by storm. This powerful ingredient is naturally produced by the body and makes up 97% of the calcium found in your enamel.

So, if you want to have strong, healthy enamel that protects your smile from dental issues such as cavities, sensitive teeth, a yellow appearance, or even gingivitis… it only makes sense to use hydroxyapatite in your daily oral care routine!
