I know a bit of Aloe Vera as I was distributing products based on Aloe Vera for a US company - an MLM business. I don't do it any more but have not forgotten what Aloe vera can do.
I now have plants in my garden and whenever I have a toothache or some tightness in my gums I rub the gel and all is well. But little did I know that it also extracts teeth that need extraction. It happened to me yesterday. One of my teeth that needed extraction just fell off after I rubbed in the Aloe vera Gel.
Goodbye Dentist. You were good no doubt but I have now found something better.

I am just curious...how did Aloe Vera help you with your tooth? 
I think that the reason might be because your tooth was either woobly from the start or is just remaining the root fragments. That could easily be removed actually. Anyway, if there is a deep wound on the extracted site, you must take an antibiotic to make sure that it won't get infected.

Do you remember when you were a child. Did you have to extract the tooth? It just fell off. That is what has happened to me. It just fell off and there is nothing left. No ache and no pain. Aloe Vera is a miracle plant jenny. It works wonders in many areas. It helps you put on weight and even lose weight. It is synergistic with various other products too.

No jokes jenny. In the morning yesterday while I was brushing my teeth it just fell off. I am sure it has all to do with the Aloe gel that I had applied the previous evening

I personally use the jelly of Aloe Vera and mix it with some sugars to eat them as I heard they are good in helping one's digestive system.
Now, I've started keeping those plants inside our room as I came to know as per search engine results that Aloe Vera plants are good "Air Filters" as they are also recognized by the NASA as one of the air filtering indoor plants.

wow! That's an interesting information acoustic!Since it can grow inside under room temperature that means it is easy to grow aloe vera.

Well, "indoor plants" also require some "exposure" to the natural sunlight for "Photosynthesis" to take place which is un-achievable without sunlight.
I know it some type of plants grow inside a room, but lets not be too optimistic..LoL.
I basically take them out to the roofs if I get time, sometimes put them in the balcony and at evening or nights I take them back in. Although this is not done on a regular basis, as I said "when I get time".
Have a nice day.

Its quite possible what you say about Aloe being air filters. Apart from the knowledge I gained as a distributor of Aloe based products, my own experience has convinced me that it has a lot of health propterties. Instead of surgar you can add honey.
The aloe products marketed by this MLM company are very expensive and so consuming the gel or applying it on wounds directly from plants would be far cheaper and better too.

Interesting. I didn't know you could use aloe vera in your mouth I thought it was typically a remidy for burns and other issues with the skin. I may have to look more into this as my hubby has very bad teeth and even with insurance we can't afford to get his teeth pulled and dentures fitted as they only allow so much per year in dental work and he wants it all done at once.... and frankly who'd blame him?!?! Sorry sir we can only do half your teeth this year you have to wait next year and the year after.

I am not sure about teeth dropping off as in my case could be it just happened but aloe is very good for maintaining teeth. I have posted a link in one of the boxes here. You could check it out.

Hi all knowing,
I know aloe vera is used in many facial creams and lotions but never thought it would work in dental problems too. I am really surprised that it releived your pain in your teeth. Wonderful and on top of it, it extracted your teeth in just one application. Now I would have to think again about using it in facial cream or in facewash. If it can do this to teeth, then what it can do to face.

Aloe vera is known to many. I discovered it when a friend of mine wanted me to join her as her downline in marketing aloe vera based products of a US based company. In that process a learnt a lot. I am not doing it now but I have plants and the natural gel from the plant is working wonders in my life and this recent dropping of the tooth must be its contribution. As I had some tightness in the gums I had applied the gel for a couple of days and this happened.

we used to have this plant at home. 
My mother used this to treat skin problems like eczema and others I forgot the skin disease name in English. Anyway, she advised people to use this to grow hair back. But I never heard of dental solution. wow.. really Aloe Vera is very good herbal remedy, cheap, easy to plant and easy to grow. 
hmmm... interesting.

As I said I was a distributor for Aloe vera based products and they had a toothpaste too. These products are very expensive as they are marketed under the MLM, scheme which includes heavy commissions down the line. I get the feeling it is a divine plant as its uses are multifarious. You need to plant just one and then they multiply. Gel taken directly from the leaf is the best but many do not have the facility to plant.

It just came off without any pain. And since I had applied the gel it must have helped it come off like that.

My husband is a believer of the wonders of Aloe Vera.He likes buying products that contains Aloe.Just last week,he had extremely dry skin all over his face.Fortunately,while we were doing our groceries,we chanced upon a huge sale at Nature Republic,he grabbed the Aloe Vera Soothing Gel.It contains 92% Aloe vera.In addition to that,it is FREE from paraben,mineral oil and artificial colors.It actually smells like our favorite Aloe Juice that we buy at Korean grocery store.He threw away the pungent medicines which were prescribed by his skin doctor. Few days,later his skin was healed.
There's an Aloe plant in my mother's garden but it is not the edible type. I want to plant an edible aloe vera in my garden.I don't know where I can get this in Philippines.

There are many species in Aloe and Aloe Vera is one type the only one that is proven to be effective. When I was distributing this product I used to use several of the products having Aloe vera in them but now I only rely on the pure gel that we get straight from the plant. There cannot be a better product than the plant itself as it is 100 percent pure.But not all have gardens. Aloe Vera is known as Aloe Barbadensis Miller. You can visit any nursery and ask for this particular species. You can search the net and look for an enlarged image of this plant to get an idea.
