Some toothpastes contain cinnamon as an ingredient and not just for the yummy flavor. Thanks to its antibacterial properties, cinnamon has been used for centuries to help soothe toothaches and fight against mouth disease. Cinnamon can keep your breath fresh and your oral hygiene in good shape by protecting against certain bacteria that cause cavities, bad breath, and mouth infections. In addition to its appealing flavor, cinnamon is also added to gum and mouthwash because it removes oral bacteria, helping ward off bad breath without harmful chemicals.
