Kathy I am going to be applying the rinse on a q-tip..I cannot reach those back teeth with anything else. I have been applying the coconut oil with my fingers on the tooth that was loose and she didn't lose that one. I am going to use the coconut oil on those back teeth too. I have it and use it on their food every day so It sure can't hurt to coat her teeth with it also. There is no way to get the tiniest toothbrush on those back teeth.
My goal is to help her keep the teeth she has left. I use a dental gel and water additive now and have been for the last year. I can't recommend it at this point..it did nothing to help her and I started using it on clean teeth after her dental last spring.
