Product description
Arimedas Tailam is a traditional Ayurvedic oil used in daily oral care practices such as Gandusha (oil holding) or Kavala (oil pulling).
Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic routine that involves holding or gently swishing oil in the mouth as part of daily oral hygiene. This practice is traditionally used to cleanse and refresh the mouth, supporting oral care as part of a broader self-care routine.
Used regularly, it helps maintain oral cleanliness, supports gum care, and promotes a sense of freshness in the mouth.
In Ayurveda, daily oral care practices are considered an important part of overall wellbeing, as the mouth is the gateway to the body.
This oil is intended for external use in oral care routines and is not intended for ingestion.
Our oils are prepared using classical Ayurvedic methods, with herbs processed into a sesame oil base using traditional techniques. Due to the use of whole herbal ingredients, the oil has a naturally strong aroma. It can be diluted if preferred.
