Ayurveda's different take on Oral Care
Ayurveda has long looked at oral care differently. Beyond cleaning the teeth, traditional Ayurvedic routines included practices such as Kavala and Gandusha—using oils and herbal preparations as part of everyday care for the mouth.
It is a fascinating reminder that Ayurveda developed its own distinctive approach to oral hygiene centuries before the modern oral-care routine took shape.
A different way of thinking about something as everyday as oral care—that’s one of the many Colours of Ayurveda™.

FAQ's
Kavala Oil is an Ayurvedic mouth-pulling oil made with 9 herbs. It is used for oil pulling, a traditional practice of swishing oil in the mouth to support daily oral hygiene and freshness.
Take a small amount of oil into your mouth and gently swish it around for 10–15 minutes. Spit it into a bin, rinse your mouth with water, and brush your teeth as usual. Do not swallow the oil.
Yes, Kavala Oil can be included in your daily oral care routine. Many people prefer using it in the morning before brushing their teeth.
No, kavala oil is an add-on to your oral hygiene routine, not a replacement. Continue brushing and flossing daily.
Small accidental swallowing is generally safe since it’s natural oil, but it’s best to spit it out after swishing to remove toxins.
Oil pulling may help maintain a cleaner, fresher-feeling mouth as part of a regular oral hygiene routine. However, it is not a substitute for brushing, flossing, or professional dental care.
