Brooks, just want to thank you for the site you sent---_Save Your Teeth and 
Be  Well!_ (http://www.quantumbalancing.com/news/saveteeth.htm)  . I have 
been brushing my teeth with Baking Soda for a long time. Just  started using 
4-5 scrubs with the brush on bar soap & then adding the BS (  now that 
doesn't sound right---not bull sh-- )   
   My teeth feel polished after brushing..[& plaque has gone.  }..My son 
has used tooth paste for sensitive for several years & it just  barely 
helped...{ His teeth were very sensitive to hot & especially  cold..}   He used 
the 
above method just 2 times & no more  sensitivity !!! It has been over a 
week now. He can't believe it. He can drink  ice cold drinks without any pain 
at all. 
     We are both using bar soap made with " soap nuts  "   { I used regular 
" Irish Spring " Bar soap to start with. }
   Do you have any idea why brushing with bar soap & Baking  Soda would 
make such a difference ??? 
  Again-- Both Dan & I want to Thank You   Lois
