About this episode

Rosalee discusses three underrated herbs that support oral health and the importance of matching herbs to specific tissues and patterns.

When most people think about oral care, they think about toothpaste or mouthwash. But herbs have a long history of supporting the mouth, gums, and oral tissues in ways that are both practical and deeply nourishing. In this short podcast, I share three of my favorite underrated herbs for oral health and why each one works so differently. ► Plantain for supporting tissue healing ► Marshmallow root for soothing dry, irritated tissues ► Echinacea for oral discomfort and deeper tissue support I also talk about one of the most important shifts in herbalism: learning how to match herbs to the tissues and patterns involved instead of using the same approach for everyone. This way of thinking is exactly what Kyle Denton teaches inside the Herbal Dental Care course. Kyle combines 15 years of experience in the dental field with clinical herbalism to teach oral care through an herbalist lens. Enrollment closes soon, so if you’ve been curious about herbal oral care, now is the time to join us. Enroll here: https://courses.herbrally.com/a/2148266690/XqYp4jfE
