10. Breaks down biofilms

Maintaining oral health is essential because when bad bacteria get a chance to thrive, they can be hard to remove. Both good and bad bacteria can form biofilms to stay alive. This biofilm grows stronger over time, unless you incorporate healthy foods into your diet to help break down these biofilms. Coconut oil can break down biofilms, making bad bacteria easier to eliminate. Daily oil pulling will even prevent biofilms from forming in the first place.
