Neem’s pain-relieving compounds will temporarily reduce the discomfort of a toothache. The vasodilation and anti-inflammatory compounds will reduce the pressure on nerves that can cause the toothache. To reduce the pain and inflammation, put a few drops of neem leaf extract gums near the site of the pain.
Personal testimony
I was developing an abscess on a wisdom tooth, which was very painful. I applied a small amount of neem leaf powder to the gum, this relieved the pain and reduced the inflammation. The ulcer healed within hours.
Pyorrhea and Neem
Pyorrhea is characterized by an inflammation of the gums and membranes that cover the roots of the teeth. People lose more teeth over age 35 because of this disease than any other cause.
In a German study of 70 patients with pyorrhea of varying stages, after just 5 to 10 treatments with a neem-based toothpaste and mouthwash there was significant improvement.
Bleeding gums had healed and the secretion from pockets around the teeth had stopped. The bluish colored gums returned to a healthy pale pink color
(Zeppenfeldt, undated).
Neem bark is more active than the leaves against certain bacteria and is considerably less bitter making it the neem ingredient of choice in toothpastes and mouthwashes (Vashi and Patel, 1988).
Scientific Studies with Neem and Gingivitis
Neem bark extracts can reduce the ability of some streptococci to colonize tooth surfaces (Wolinsky and Mania, 1996), (Patel and Venkatakrishna, 1988). Gingivitis has been prevented or even reversed with regular use of neem toothpaste and mouthwash (Elvin-Lewis, 1980).
One person even reported a reversal of the loss of gum tissue by chewing fresh neem leaves. Scientists believe that antibacterial compounds and Neem’s ability to improve the immune response in the gums and tissues of the mouth account for these results.
What is Gingivitis?
Gingivitis is a form of periodontal disease. Periodontal disease involves inflammation and/or infection that results in destruction of the tissues that support the teeth, including the gingiva (gums), the periodontal ligaments, and the tooth sockets (alveolar bone).

Neem extracts have helped millions of people in south Asia to avoid cavities despite a very limited access to modern dental care.
Regular brushing with neem toothpaste and rinsing with neem mouthwash destroys cavity-causing bacteria, enhances mouth immunity, prevents tartar/plaque buildup and subsequently freshens breath.
Neem toothpastes and mouthwashes prevent cavities, heal gum diseases and rejuvenate the tissues of the mouth. (Lorenz, 1976).
Neem active toothpaste has brought results beyond our wildest dreams.
Neem’s effectiveness against Periodontal Disease
Throughout India and South East Asia hundreds of millions of village people use Neem twigs and leaves to brush their teeth, and keep their gums free of disease and infection even though they have limited access to modern dental care. The ancient Ayurvedic practice of using Neem to heal and rejuvenate gum tissue and to prevent cavities and gum disease is verified in modern clinical studies.
Studies showed that Neem bark is more active then the leaves against certain bacteria and that Neem based toothpastes and mouth washes significantly improved Pyorrhea, at various stages, in 70 patients. In another study Neem toothpaste prevented and even reversed gingivitis.
Bad Breath and Neem
The usual reason for chronic bad breath is bacteria, infections or gastric upset.
Neem toothpastes and mouthwashes contain proven antibacterial and anti-viral compounds that can stop bad breath where it originates.
The most common site of bad breath causing bacteria is the back of the tongue. The bacteria that cause bad breath can form a film that is difficult to gargle away and must be either scraped or brushed away. Once the film is removed and the bacteria are exposed neem extract will easily destroy the bacteria.
If the cause is infection of the mouth, brushing the teeth and gums with neem toothpaste and rinsing afterward with neem extract will kill the infection and promote healing. For bad breath caused by gastric upset, ingestion of neem leaves or fresh seed kernel is traditionally recommended to relieve the upset and correct any acid imbalance.
Treatment. Brush two or three times daily if possible or use mouthwash after every meal. For acute cases take two Neem capsules daily, one morning and one at night.
