I hope the dental profession doesn't take as long as the medical profession to incorporate emerging insights in the various microbiomes of the human body, into daily practice!
Thank you for sharing this link! I need to look into this because my only exposure to myrrh is from the gifts of the Wise Men (likely they had adequate iodine levels 🤪)
I’ve been using a chlorine dioxide mouth rinse, I don’t believe it wrecks my mouth microbiome though. It has helped with my bad breath!
The dentist I recently saw offers Guided Biofilm cleanings (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dOJoSbZ1J3I). I declined though because isn’t it good to have some biofilm in the mouth microbiome? I asked them this and then they asked where I got my information, but it’s mostly just a hunch, so I didn’t have a very good answer. What do you think of biofilm?

Have you any experience with using myrrh as a mouthwash? I use it a couple of times per week, after flossing and brushing. Unsurprisingly, there's more research on it from non-Western institutions, like this study: https://opendentistryjournal.com/VOLUME/13/PAGE/1/FULLTEXT/#:~:text=Based%20on%20the%20results%20of,using%20myrrh%20mouthwash%20reduces%20plaque.
Of course, I can't even say the word 'myrrh' without thinking of the Three Wise Men scene from The Life of Brian 🤣: https://youtu.be/3pxFr3t-tHw?si=O2CzAkDo4pT5Tqd5
