The
miswak (
miswaak,
siwak) is a natural
toothbrush made from the twigs of the
Salvadora persica tree, also known as the arak tree or the peelu tree. Other tree types that are used are the
olive,
walnut, and other trees with bitter roots.
In 2007, Researchers at the Wrigley Company carried out tests on nine volunteers. Writing in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, they found mints laced with Magnolia (Miswak is Salvadora persica, which belongs to the Magnoliophyta Division of the Plant Kingdom) killed 20 times more bacteria than mints without. After half an hour, the magnolia mint had killed more than 60% of the bacteria, compared to just 3.6% among those who had consumed a normal mint. "Magnolia bark extract demonstrated a significant anti-bacterial activity against organisms responsible for oral malodour and can be incorporated into mints and chewing gum for improved breath freshening benefits."
Advocates of magnolia have long praised its properties, claiming it can alleviate the symptoms of conditions ranging from rheumatism to asthma.

A 2003 scientific study comparing the use of miswaak with ordinary toothbrushing concluded that the results clearly were in favor of the users who had been using the miswaak provided they had been given proper instruction in how to brush using the miswaak
[1]. The
WHO recommended the use of the
miswaak in 1986 and in 2000 an international consensus report on oral hygiene concluded that further research was needed to document the effect of the
miswak[2]. Recent research by Dr Otaybi from
Saudi [2] opened a new area for research on the systemic effects of Miswak ( Sewak ) after discovering its great positive effect on the immunity system. Dr.Rami Mohammed Diabi
[3]who spent more than 17 years researching on Miswak effects on health and especially its anti-addiction effects
[4] on smokers ( curative & Preventive sides ) had opened a great field of science and researches by his last research : "Miswak Medicine theory " or Sewak Puncture medicine
[5] which led him to what is so called
Beyond Sewak: World of Science and Research)
[6] Miswak also is contributing in the fight against desertification (See effects of Salvadora Persica "Miswak tree" on stopping deserts and fixing the soil
[7]), thereby affecting our environment and global climate.
In addition to strengthening the gums, preventing
tooth decay and eliminating toothaches, the miswak is also said to halt further increase in decay that has already set in. Furthermore, it is claimed to create a fragrance in the mouth, eliminate bad odour, improve the sense of taste and cause the teeth to glow and shine.
Supposed benefits not related to the teeth and gums include sharpening memory, curing headaches, creating a glow on the face of the one who continually uses it, strengthening the eyesight, assisting in digestion and clearing the voice. None of these claims, however, have been researched scientifically.
Its pretty crazy, but i went from having horrible pain to no pain in about an hour using this stuff.
