Oil pulling with coconut oil may not be very effective in preventing cavities, as studies on this technique have shown unreliable results. It can be safe as long as it is not used as a replacement for basic dental hygiene practices such as flossing and brushing with fluoride toothpaste. However, swallowing the oil can lead to stomach discomfort and diarrhea. It is worth a try, but do not expect miraculous results. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice on oral health.
