Ingredients
1 teaspoon of cloves
1 teaspoon of chamomile
½ teaspoon of willow bark
Instructions:
Begin by combining 1 teaspoon of cloves, 1 teaspoon of chamomile and ½ teaspoon of willow bark in a mortar and pestle or spoon to crush the ingredients. Grind the ingredients together into a fine powder.
Place a small amount (no more than 1 teaspoon) of the powder in a bowl and add 2 teaspoons of peppermint.
Mix the ingredients together until they form a paste.
Take a small amount of the paste (no more than ¼ teaspoon) and place it on your baby's toothbrush. Gently brush their teeth with the paste in a circular motion.
Spit the paste out and rinse your baby's mouth with warm water.
Repeat this process twice daily for best results. If toothache persists, please consult a doctor or qualified naturopathic practitioner.
