RUBBING THE GUMS Rubbing the palate, upper and lower gums from outside and inside and undersurface of tongue was a revelation! It benefited me in Salivation, Cleansing of mouth, Taste sensation, Bad mouth odor, Sinusitis, Preventing mouth ulcers, Preventing infections in mouth, Reducing the sensitivity of teeth, Preventing infections of face such as boils, Initiating defecation reflex etc by Neural stimulation and circulatory improvement And Feel fresh probably by stimulating corresponding areas of brain! It might have benefited in the health of eyes and other facial organs as well! I am very happy to practice rubbing the palate, upper and lower gums from outside and inside and undersurface of tongue with Ayurvedic tooth powders every morning!
