Dental Cavities & Decay

Dental cavities (also called caries) are caused by a breakdown of tooth enamel due to acid-producing bacteria, sugar exposure, and mineral imbalance in the mouth. When enamel becomes demineralized and isn’t properly replenished with minerals through saliva and nutrition, decay can set in and progress over time.

<br>Early decay is often reversible with consistent support. Addressing cavities naturally requires a combination of oral microbiome care, remineralization strategies, and nutrient support from within.

Understanding Dental Cavities

Cavities happen when:

  • Enamel becomes demineralized from frequent acid exposure (like sugar, grains, and processed foods).
  • Harmful bacteria (like Streptococcus mutans) dominate the oral microbiome.
  • Saliva isn’t strong enough to neutralize acid or deliver minerals.
  • The body is depleted in minerals due to stress, diet, or chronic inflammation.
  • Mouth breathing and tooth grinding due to oral ties and poor jaw development

Healing from early cavities or preventing new ones means supporting:

  • A mineral-rich body (especially calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, vitamins A, D, and K2)
  • A healthy oral microbiome, this may include oral probiotics
  • A well-hydrated mouth and strong saliva (this will require addressing mouth breathing)
  • An oral care routine that truly supports remineralization

Order of Operations for Supporting Dental Health

  • Use daily to restore mineral balance.

  1. Supportive nutritional supplements to replenish minerals.

  • We use ORL and SuperTeeth for toothpaste. We also like the Bliss Energetics tooth puddy or Dentite drops. 

  • This can help replenish the good bacteria in the mouth and bring the pathogenic bacteria more into balance. Especially helpful for those with airway issues and swollen tonsils.

  • You can’t remineralize without absorbing minerals.

  • Mouth breathing, dehydration, snacking, and poor sleep impact oral health.

Cell Salts for Dental Support

Calcarea Phosphorica 6x

  • Classic bone-building remedy. Supports growth and remineralization.
  • Use during teething, after dental trauma, or during cavity repair protocols.

Calcarea Fluorica 6x

  • Helps strengthen enamel and support elastic tissues (like gums and ligaments).
  • Great for weak or brittle enamel, teeth that chip easily, or visible lines/pitting.

Silicea 6x

  • Deep detoxifier that helps push out chronic oral infections and abscess tendencies.
  • Supports gum and root health, especially if there’s a history of infection.
