Mouth Hygiene
The Mouth is an Indication of the Health of the Body
The meridians and vessels in the body run into the jaw to specific teeth. The meridians and vessels manage the life force of the body. If the mouth is not in good condition, specifically a tooth or a few, this translates into the life force of the body being compromised and can be traced to the meridians, vessels and their associated organs struggling with toxicity.
A lot of this can be seen in the beginning months and then usually year on year in the vet records after the created illness cycle has been fully implemented. What is paramount to your animal’s health is preventing all toxic exposure in or on their body and in their environment. This is all presented on the toxicity section of this website. In addition, they need a fresh food diet, sun and exercise.
If the above is not implemented, then your animals mouth hygiene will most likely be less than healthy. To recap – how the mouth and teeth are impacted:
1. Not Enough Exercise and Too Much Food
If the body is not moving, it is not cleaning as efficiently and using the food’s energy. Animals must work for their food, this is how nature is designed. They move, they hunt then they eat and rest. When we constantly feed the body via our love – we over feed a system that is usually not moving enough and this leaves to an overfed body sitting, fermenting. Hence, the gunk on the teeth. A clean, well-running body does not leave residue anywhere.
2. All Pet Industry Food and Treats Stick
Fresh food eaters rarely have anything on their teeth. All pet industry no matter what you are told, yes, definitely the dry food – as this is all marketing to get you to buy yet another product – sticks to the teeth. It is sugar and horrendous for the body. It coats the teeth and it is coating all the internal organs too. From the pet food industry perspective, this is fabulous as they then can then offer another line of products under “teeth cleaning”. These toxic chews are available for you to spend your hard-earned money on. I recently (2021) witnessed a box of “dental chews’ being purchased for $65.00. None of which will do the job, just hurt your animal as these dental chews are filled with “fillers and junk”.
And it is amazing to me, even some of the reputable sources you would think would not be promoting dental sticks, are, and have ingredients such as “natural flavour”, a.k.a. potentially MSG, peppermint oil, rosemary oil, tapioca, and starch. None of these ingredients should be ingested by your animal.
3. Chemical & Essential Oil Toothpastes
The chemicals in the toothpastes sold for your pet, kills all good bacteria, and damages the gut microbiome.
I see a lot of essential oils in some of these toothpastes too. These essential oils all have their own properties, and are rarely if ever ingested by animals such as thyme and clove for example. These should be used very carefully as for most animals, if not all, these would be very toxic to the animal, their organs if used on a frequent basis.
4. Good Mouth Bacteria Lacking
Like the gut, good mouth bacteria, healthy oral microbiome is vital for the body to thrive, and for the mouth to be healthy. Lack of a good healthy fresh alive diet, and participation in pharmaceuticals, and dental products destroys the microbiome of the mouth. This then contributes to all kinds of imbalances in the body.
5. Lack of Vitamin C
If you do have an animal that is fed well, exercised well, is not exposed to industry, yet a problem with debris on the teeth a.k.a gingivitis exists, then this could be a sign the body is lacking in Vitamin C. Another symptom the body might also be presenting may be constipation. If both of these are symptoms are present, then try adding Vitamin C to your animals’ diet and see if this clears up. A little at a time as too much will cause diarrhea. Your goal will be to see what their level of need is. Loose stool tells you to back off to a smaller dose.
Sourcing from reputable sources is essential as almost all supplements are full of unlisted ingredient, filler and toxic ingredients. For animal’s only = do not use. You want a product which is good for all life forms, pure Vitamin C. Kiwi fruits are fabulous if your animal likes them and they grow in your geographic area.
If the body is presenting other symptoms beyond these two, which they may very well be, then the animal definitely needs Zoopharmacognosey support and / or homeopathic support and most likely a good dental clean to remove the debris.
How to Keep Your Animal’s Mouth Clean
Raw Bones
People are big on brushing their animal’s teeth. You do what works for you and what works for your animal. We use large RAW buffalo knuckles weekly to clean our canine’s teeth and chicken bones to clean our cat’s teeth. Raw bones supply the following nutrients: marrow, antioxidants, fiber, essential fatty acids, vitamins, amino acids, protein, enzymes and minerals.
Cooked bones cause internal damage – never feed cooked bones to any animal. When you give a bone, always be around to supervise, allow the animal to chew for 1-2 hours then take it away and compost it. Do not collect bones in your house or yard. This is not a healthy environment and will attract unwanted visitors.
Be Cognisant of Potential Tooth Fractures
What is important to know, is a lot of tooth fractures may occur if the jaw is not strong enough or the bones are too hard. And this applies to not just raw bones but other such things as antlers and artificial chews. This is an important article to read so one is informed, The Mistake Many Pet Owners Make After This Injury.
Real-life Experience | The Power of a Bone from a Pet Parent’s Perspective
I had my 5-year-old dog at the vet who said that for approximately $500.00 I had to take my dog into the hospital at which time she would be given anesthetics and her teeth will be cleaned. I looked into different options and consulted Nicola adapting my dog’s food then gave her a raw bone. ONE raw BONE was all it took and my dog’s teeth were pearl-white again. Thanks to Nicola I saved my dog from drugs she didn’t need and saved my purse $500.00. Unbelievable – thank you Nicola!

Raw Vegetables & Fruit
Anything crunchy will help strengthen the jaw and also clean the teeth. Raw organic apples, broccoli stalks, red peppers, cauliflower, celery, apples, cucumbers, sweet potatoes, any raw organic food which your animal enjoys which will create friction when eating, will help clean the teeth.
Green Clay Toothpaste
Another option, or in addition to all of the above is to use green clay to brush your animal’s teeth. Add food-grade green clay with a little water, and brush thoroughly all through the mouth, including the tongue. Best toothpaste ever! This will also help your animal’s body detox, and clean naturally. Video | How to Make and Use Clay Toothpaste To Clean, Detox, and Remineralize Naturally | https://youtu.be/imZgVY420YM
LEBA III
For an animal’s teeth in really bad shape, LEBA III works well with green clay applied. It becomes a daily process. LEBA III is enzymes. The lack of enzyme balance in the mouth will have to do with the body being off balance especially in the stomach, the whole digestive tract. One must look more closely at the whole body, mind and spirit, what else it is the being messaging?
A bad mouth is a body / system issue which is calling out for help and a lot of change. Usually, the organ doing the messaging is the kidneys if the gums are presenting inflammation.
pH Level
The pH level in the mouth is very important to check regularly. It is as important as the gut. The mouth health needs to be above 7.0 else the mouth is too acidic, and the good bacteria essential for a healthy mouth, beautiful gums, and strong beautiful white teeth cannot thrive, replenish, and maintain optimal levels. This will be contributing to dis-ease in the body, in the head, including the brain.
This is another “service creation” which the vet community is cashing in on. The larger issue is the anesthesia and the trauma of this experience to your animal. Animals should only be exposed to anesthesia in extreme situations never annually much less more.
I am pretty sure no pet owner is asking what type of anesthesia is being used, how much is being given and the side effects nor about the other drugs the practitioners plan to place into the body as usually there is a lot which in many cases is not needed. Please understand the synergy of these drugs in the body has never been tested, not that we wish to do this to any life form.
Many animals come out with seizures and a whole host of issues from going under anesthesia. Teeth cleaning under anesthesia should be a one-off extraordinary procedure when an animal is in really dire straits. It should not be a regular practise. I see emails sent out monthly with teeth cleaning specials by veterinarians. This is not practising “do no harm”. This is pure revenue generation.
It is reported a safer method is gas. Apparently, this does not have ill effects on the body. Again, please do your homework before agreeing to do any procedure on your animal. Take the time to investigate and ask questions and never feel pressured into doing anything to your animal that does not feel right.
Teeth Cleaning Service, No Anesthesia
This is an example of a local service which provides teeth cleaning without anesthesia. Please understand though, this is great to do, but why the teeth are presenting such debris this must be addressed for a healthy body. Also, please check what, if any, chemicals are being used to clean the teeth and do your homework before booking any appointments.

Teeth Cleaning Under Anesthesia
If your animal must go for teeth cleaning and is put under anesthesia, then this will have to be intentionally negated in the body and energy fields. These products do not flush out like many assume. They sit in the body and corrode it slowly. They must be neutralized in the physical body and energy fields. Usually, there is five or so products used as pet owners are not doing their due diligence prior to these procedures inquiring and investigating what is necessary versus unnecessary. If you are not asking and instructing, then your animal is most likely being flooded with pharmaceuticals for Big Pharma profit most which do immense harm to the body long-term.
Matted Coat Adress During This Visit
Also, if your animal has any matting in the coat which is hard to get at or causing any mobility issues– this is a good time to do this. Make sure all matting is removed as some of it can be severe and this is a good opportunity to get rid of it while the animal is under.
