Following are the individual benefits of the ingredients:

Coconut oil: Thanks to its antimicrobial properties, coconut oil helps to kill bacteria that causes tooth decay and bad breath.† It also helps prevent plaque from developing.

Baking soda: The grit in baking soda will help remove plaque buildup, and neutralizes the acid in the mouth to prevent tooth decay and bad breath.

Chlorophyll: Chlorophyll helps eliminate odors in the mouth and improves digestion,† which is often the cause of bad breath.

Turmeric: This herb has anti-inflammatory properties that can improve gum health as well as help whiten teeth.†

Parsley: This green herb acts as a mineral-rich deodorizer and aids in freshening the mouth.
