All patients may not be able to correctly carry out mechanical teeth brushing methods in varied circumstances since they need for dexterity and specific motivation. On the other hand, since over-the-counter mouthwashes have various side effects, more natural counterparts are being researched. Oil pulling is an application that has been applied in India for 3000-5000 years and is good for various systemic diseases. This method, which is applied with different oils, provides various benefits to the teeth and surrounding tissues. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the research on the oils used in oil pulling and their benefits.
