Long ago, oral health was such a burden to
people. As people got older, their teeth
would just deteriorate and decay naturally
and painfully. There were no surgical dental
solutions that would help with their
problems. They would just have their teeth
pulled out to be free from toothaches. We
are quite fortunate to avoid being able to
experience these happenings.

Eventually, having healthy teeth just
became a priority to everyone else. They
were able to point out the importance of
the core foundation in cleaning the oral
cavities. At first, there were no toothpastes
to be used. They had to use lemon juice,
ashes, charcoal or a ground-up chalk, or
even tobacco and honey being mixed
together. Imagine how uncomfortable
would that be.

Hundreds of years had to pass for people to
finally utilize gentle materials to clean their
teeth. At last, someone discovered a minty
cream to be used for this. The tube as a
container then followed. During the Second
World War, tooth brushing became known.
People were educated by the soldiers. The
materials used were metals which were
kind of hard to deal with.
