Just to keep you up to date on my situation

I started again on the hydro floss - just once a day no more - and this time at right angles to the gum line - using an ordinary mouthwash with dashes of tea tree oil.

First day was very bloody. I then used Vogel toothpaste on my sonic brush -threw away the ’spinning jenny’ just a gum massage and light brush twice daily. Mouthwash is Listerine - the one for gums and teeth - stings like hell at the moment!!

Second day - much better less blood

Then I found the xylitol - it is called ‘Perfect sweet’ over here 100% pure and on the third day I ate plenty of it (also taking vit c plus calcium.)

This morning - first time ever hydrofloss with no bleeding

I found the xylitol in a shop called Holland and Barrett - but it is marketed overall in the UK as a Health food - (I can see the price soaring) I think there probably is a fantastic marketing opportunity for toothpaste /mouthwash with say a predominant bicarb / xylitol mix plus essential oils -in the UK - and I would be happy to be part of it cos it does work. dont know how to go about it though!!

Anyway I am born again thanks to you and I am going to try and keep the very loose tooth going and see what happens. It was a pleasure to speak to you - I have found you ad you are a ‘guiding light’

Best Wishes Elsdon Ward
