Oil pulling - to do, not to do???

I have ran across various articles on oil pulling - I have tried it in the past with coconut oil, swishing around in my mouth for 5-10 minutes, then spit in a baggie that I can seal and throw out in the trash. Is there any benefit to oil pulling?

Kim - I'm not sure if it is the coconut oil or the added drop of ONGuard, but my dentist reports my gums are in better condition. Not so much everyday, but a 2-4x per week swishers.
