A dentifrice form consisting of a dry compound of sodium bicarbonate as an oral bactricidal agent and oral antacid, psyllium husk fiber as a delivery system being an absorbent expansive binder and a flavoring agent. The dentifrice form is then placed in a porous dental mouth tray which is lined with a permeable matrix moistened with potable water. The dentifrice form in the tray is then moistened with potable water and the tray with the moistened dentifrice form is inserted into the oral cavity and placed against the upper or lower dental arch so as to cause the dentifrice form to be in contact with the teeth and gums of the respective arch for a period of seven minutes. The process is then repeated for the remaining dental arch.
