Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic ritual where you swish natural oil in your mouth to remove bacteria, support a healthy oral microbiome, and freshen breath. Mae Mae Care elevates this tradition with science-backed, organic mouth oils for daily preventive care.

By swishing oil in your mouth, you can reduce harmful bacteria, plaque, and toxins, promoting a cleaner and healthier oral environment.

Oil pulling can help detoxify the mouth, strengthen gum health, freshen breath, reduce plaque buildup, and support overall oral hygiene. Mae Mae Care Mouth & Tooth Care Oils go beyond ordinary formulas, delivering enhanced benefits through carefully selected, high-quality natural ingredients.

Yes – the MAE MAE CARE collection combines expertly crafted CO₂ oil-pulling formulas designed for your daily wellbeing.

Each blend is created to elevate your oral care ritual beyond the ordinary – for a truly holistic care experience you can feel.

Yes – all Mae Mae Care oil pulling products are crafted with 100% organic, natural ingredients to ensure highest purity, quality, and safety.

For best results, we recommend oil pulling daily, preferably in the morning before eating or drinking, during the day to refresh the oral microbiome and before going to bed.

Yes, children can use our oil pulling products, but it is advisable to use a smaller amount of oil and supervise them to ensure they do not swallow it.

Recommended for adults, children over 6 years old and all mouths and teeth types.

Oil pulling is generally safe for most people. However, if you have any medical conditions or allergies, consult your healthcare provider before starting.

Swallowing small amounts of oil is usually safe, but to avoid ingesting unfriendly bacteria, it is best to spit out the oil after rinsing.

The oral cavity is the gateway to our body – it is where both digestion and immune defense begin. A disrupted oral microbiome not only increases the risk of cavities and gum inflammation but is also linked to systemic conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and chronic inflammation.

Regular oral care helps reduce harmful bacteria, maintain microbiome balance, and strengthen the oral mucosa. Mae Mae Care’s oil pulling products offer a holistic approach: they gently cleanse, nourish the mucous membranes, and support a healthy oral microbiota – free from synthetic additives and based on scientifically validated plant extracts.

Oil pulling binds bacteria and toxins in the oral cavity. The lipophilic nature of Mae Mae Care oils supports the removal of unwanted microorganisms and can help promote a healthy oral microbiota. Specific plant extracts in Lotus Effect and Calm & Sleep also provide antioxidant and soothing effects.

With regular use, oil pulling can help reduce inflammatory markers in the mouth.
Mae Mae Care formulations contain plant-based active ingredients such as myrrh, frankincense, and others that are used for sensitive gums and support the natural barrier function of the oral mucosa.

Yes. Oil pulling reduces anaerobic bacteria that produce volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), which are often responsible for bad breath. The antimicrobial oils used in Mae Mae Care – such as melissa, mint, and lavender – have a deodorizing effect and promote long-lasting fresh breath.

Oil pulling products like those from Mae Mae Care clean the mouth without abrasion, relying instead on the lipophilic binding of bacteria and toxins. This gentle cleansing method protects the oral mucosa and enamel while supporting the natural balance of the oral microbiome.

In contrast, conventional toothpastes often contain:

• which can damage sensitive enamel over time
• which may disrupt the oral microbiome and irritate the mucous membranes
• which can be controversial or unsuitable for certain individuals

Mae Mae Care oil pulling blends offer a microbiome-friendly and holistic alternative with many additional advantages:

• natural oral microbiome, instead of disrupting it
• synthetic foaming agents, emulsifiers, and preservatives
• plant-based, formulated with functional botanicals and developed with dentists and dermatologists
• oral mucosa and gum tissue – no brushing required
• sensitive gums, mucosal irritation, or dry mouth
• mild mouthwash on the go – no water or toothbrush needed
• aromatherapeutic ingredients

Mae Mae Care oil pulling products are more than just a supplement to oral hygiene – they represent a new category of care for those who want more than just clean teeth: microbiome balance, freshness, and regeneration.

Ideally, in the morning right after waking up, as a large number of bacteria accumulate in the mouth overnight. Lotus Effect is specifically formulated for morning use, while Calm & Sleep with soothing ingredients like Ashwagandha,
Hops, Valerian, Melissa, and Lavender is perfect for your evening routine. For those seeking additional antioxidant support, Vital Glow Anti-Aging can be used flexibly – morning or evening – to help protect oral tissues and support a youthful, healthy microbiome.

For noticeable results, 2–5 minutes are sufficient – especially with Mae Mae Care’s potent formulations. A longer duration can enhance the effect by increasing the transfer of active ingredients to the oral mucosa, but it is not strictly necessary for efficacy.

No. After oil pulling, the oil has bound bacteria and toxins and should be spat out – preferably into a tissue and disposed of in the household waste. It is not a food-grade oil but a cosmetic product intended for oral care.

Yes, there are studies showing that oil pulling can reduce oral bacteria such as Streptococcus mutans. Mae Mae Care products are based on well-established plant-based formulations and are developed in collaboration with dentists and dermatologists. Read more about our products on the product pages.

Mae Mae Care stands out by combining the proven benefits of traditional oil pulling with cutting-edge oral microbiome research. Unlike many conventional products, our formulations are free from emulsifiers, made in Germany, and focused on functional, high-performance ingredients.

What truly sets us apart: Mae Mae Care is one of the few brands using CO₂-extracted plant oils – a gentle, solvent-free process that preserves the full spectrum of active compounds. This ensures maximum purity, potency, and effectiveness. Each formula is thoughtfully developed with antimicrobial plant oils, antioxidants, and soothing aromatherapy components – for a new generation of microbiome-friendly oral care.

Mae Mae Care products contain no synthetic additives. However, pregnant individuals should always consult with their midwife or gynecologist before use – especially due to the presence of certain essential oils.

Yes. Oil pulling is particularly gentle and does not contain irritating substances. Mae Mae Care formulas include soothing ingredients, making them suitable for people with sensitive teeth or exposed tooth necks (dentin hypersensitivity).

Mae Mae Care oils are specifically formulated to preserve the natural balance of the oral microbiome. By carefully selecting ingredients, the growth of beneficial bacteria is not disrupted – unlike conventional oral care products that contain alcohol or synthetic antiseptics, which can harm the microbiome’s diversity and resilience.

We recommend oil pulling before brushing, especially in the morning. This helps remove accumulated bacteria and supports a cleaner oral environment. After oil pulling, you can brush your teeth as usual – for example, using an electric toothbrush. Some users also add a drop of Mae Mae Care oil to their toothbrush for an extra plant-based care boost.

In the evening, we recommend brushing your teeth after your last meal – particularly if you’ve consumed sugar or carbohydrates – and then using Calm & Sleep as a final step. This allows the soothing and microbiome-supporting ingredients to work overnight for optimal effect.

Yes, especially in cases of early-stage gingivitis, oil pulling with anti-inflammatory oils (found in Mae Mae Care products) can help soothe the mucosa and reduce bleeding. However, it does not replace professional dental cleanings.

Yes. Oil pulling promotes the balance of the oral microbiota. Mae Mae Care oils do not contain harsh antibacterial chemicals but instead have a gently regulating effect – making them ideal for the long-term care of a healthy oral ecosystem.

Oil pulling can support cavity prevention, reduce plaque buildup, and help maintain healthy gums. Mae Mae Care products go a step further by providing antioxidant and soothing effects – especially when used daily over an extended period.
