Frequently Asked Questions
-
Ayurveda gathers personal hygiene into a morning routine called dinacharya, a sequence of simple cleansing rituals meant to clear the night's build-up and ready the body for the day. These habits are seen as the foundation of health, not mere grooming.
- Scraping the tongue and cleaning the teeth.
- Oil pulling (gandusha) to freshen the mouth.
- Washing the face and eyes with cool water, then bathing.
-
Oil pulling, known as gandusha or kavala, is the practice of swishing a spoonful of oil (traditionally sesame or coconut) around the mouth for several minutes, then spitting it out. It is one of the oldest oral-care rituals in Ayurveda, traditionally valued for keeping the mouth clean and fresh, supporting the gums, and clearing the overnight coating from the tongue and teeth. Do it on an empty stomach in the morning, never swallow the oil, and follow with brushing.
-
Ayurveda recommends tongue scraping to remove "ama," the sticky coating of overnight residue that settles on the tongue, leaving the mouth fresher and the taste buds clearer. A few gentle pulls with a copper or steel scraper, front to back, are traditionally believed to support fresh breath and even kindle the appetite. It takes seconds and is one of the most loved habits in the daily routine.
-
Herbal tooth powders (dant manjan) are valued for cleaning and freshening with botanicals like neem, clove, and babool, where many commercial pastes rely on foaming agents and synthetic additives. The herbs are traditionally prized for keeping the gums and teeth comfortable and the breath fresh. Whether a powder suits you is personal preference; some enjoy the brisk, herbal clean, while others prefer a paste texture.
-
A small group of time-honoured herbs appears again and again in Ayurvedic oral care.
- Neem, "the village pharmacy," prized for keeping the mouth clean.
- Clove (lavanga), warming and freshening.
- Babool bark, traditionally used to support the gums.
- Triphala, used as a gargle for a fresh, clean mouth.
-
Ayurveda keeps the body fresh with cooling, cleansing botanicals and good bathing habits rather than aluminium-based antiperspirants. Vetiver, sandalwood, neem, and rose are traditional favourites in bath powders and natural splashes.
- Bathe with a herbal ubtan or neem cleanser.
- Dust on a vetiver or sandalwood body powder.
- Favour cooling foods and breathable cotton, especially in summer.
-
A classical morning sequence flows naturally from the mouth outward.
- Scrape the tongue and brush the teeth on waking.
- Swish a little oil (oil pulling), then rinse.
- Splash the face and open eyes with cool water.
- Bathe, using a gentle herbal cleanser or ubtan.
