Cell salts are integrated into the building my sons used to construct. As they grew older, I'd leave it up to them to take their 4 pills while playing with Lego's.
I’d like to thank The Healthy Home Economist for first sharing the following post with her readers. Now, I’m glad to share it with you, too.
The quality of the teeth represents the status of the bone structure of the body.
Therefore, it’s important that the teeth be sound. If they are, the bones will be reliable, too.
Sometimes, parents are concerned when their child’s teeth show frequent and large cavities in spite of a nutrient dense diet.
This is rare when children are raised on raw milk, saturated fats and bone stocks but it indeed can occur in children who have certain predisposing DNA.
In this case, working with a credentialed homeopath would be in order; however, if the caries are not of a particularly worrisome level, much can be done to remedy the problem at home.
It generally takes a good amount of time, however Calc phos 6x and Calc fluor 12x taken thrice daily, for many months has been shown to strengthen and aid in the growth and integrity children’s teeth.
These two remedies make a great combination since Calc phos “is concerned with formation of bone and teeth and [is] an important remedy for children”; Calc fluor “is found in the surface of bones and in the enamel of teeth.”[1]
But that’s not all. They’re specific for growth in general and it’s not uncommon to see children who have problems with their teeth display other growth issues.
Lovely! That means that with these two remedies, we can address the entire child.
Isn’t that what homeopathy is about?
When my children were growing, I had them take Calc phos and Calc fluor on a daily basis in spite of the fact that they were raised on raw milk bone stocks and saturated fats.
During these years, it appeared that two of our boys’ teeth were growing in a crooked fashion. In fact, I’m sure that if we hadn’t chosen our holistic dentist, we might have been pressured to consider dental braces.
Instead, I believed that as they grew, their teeth would grow and straighten accordingly.
That’s exactly what happened.
A simple technique for administering these remedies is to add them directly to jugs of milk. In one gallon of milk, add 10 or so pills of each, stir and the job is complete. As your children ingest their milk throughout the day, they’ll get these two remedies in each sip.
Now, our boys have fine, strong and straight teeth without the “aid” of orthodontia.
We saved ourselves not only thousands of dollars, but more importantly, allowed their bodies to complete the work of bone alignment on their own….with a little help from nutrient dense foods and our beloved homeopathic remedies.

I thought you weren’t supposed to take remedies along with food? is it different with cell salt remedies? thanks!
In my experience, I’ve observed the positive effects of homeopathic cell salts even while taking them along with milk or smoothies.
A glass of milk sounds a lot nicer than a visit to the dentist’s office. lol : )
where would I purchase these two remedies?
Hi Barb, Local grocery stores and health food stores often carry homeopathic remedies. Otherwise, I like to recommend my trusted pharmacy, Johnson’s Village Pharmacy.
Is the a way I can learn more about Cell Salts. Does Joette have any of her great CD’s that talk about Cell Salts?
Hi Lisa, my CD set, “Cell Salts. The Easy Homeopathy” is a great way to learn more about the cell salts. You can check it out here along with some other educational products, too.
This is great information! My husband and I were both “dentally challenged” growing up and are definitely looking for preventive measures for our daughter.
How many of each would a child take 3 times a day? For how long..is it continuous?
It is recommended that 3-4 pills equal 1 dose. So, that means, a child could take 1 dose, up to 3 times per day. Or, it’s also recommended to place 4 pills in a glass of water and take 1 sip (1 sip = 1 dose), 3 times per day. Either way works just fine. I often have found that it is best to use these two cell salts for several months in order to see the benefits.
What about using these (or others?) for adult’s teeth? Nice article and good to know that cell salts can be used in beverages.
Thank you!
I use these cell salts every day myself, because I had a tooth crack and wanted to prevent that from happening in the future. Especially for moms who have nursed extensively…and even those who haven’t, these are important cell salts for years after and while nursing. In fact, it’s what I discuss in great detail on my pregnancy CD and when I meet with pregnant women. These are also important for those who, for years eliminated dairy. They would have some catching up to do.
I was looking up to purchase these products and found a liquid version for a great price compared to the tablets. My question is that the Calc phos 6x is only available in tablet but is available in liquid 12x. Can you substitute the 12x liquid for the the 6x? the price is about 1/4 perserving with the liquid vs. tablets.
I prefer to stick with Calc phos 6x and to use it frugally, you can place 4 pills in about 4 ounces of water and when used in this manner, 1 sip (approx. 1 tsp) equals 1 dose. This liquid solution will last up to a week.
Is it okay to dissolve these remedies in milk that will be used to make milk kefir, or should they only go into plain milk?
Yes, that’s OK to do, Sarah
I’m having a hard time finding calc fluor in 12x strength. Could I use either 6x or 30x instead?
It’s recommended to go with a 6x if you aren’t able to find a 12x
Hi, my 7 yr old daughter’s two front teeth are coming in crooked, do you think these will help her? How long would she have to be on them for? We also don’t consume dairy because of allergies.
Thanks!
Thanks for your question. It’s possible that these two cell salt remedies can help straighten her teeth. However, because homeopathy is so individual-specific, it is difficult to say definitively, how much or how soon any given remedy will bring healing. I hope this helps!
Can this remedy work on pets who have cavities? Maggie
I should add that the pet is a cat. Maggie
I really feel glad to read your post. I am very inform about teeth, homeopathy and the some of the process in taking homeopathy solution.
[...] As a homeopath who teaches mothers and others how to maintain and restore heath, I often suggest using lard in baking (like our grandmothers’ pies!) and in sautéing. I also teach folks how to employ homeopathic remedies, such as Calc phos 6x, to help promote the proper absorption of nutrients. [...]
