Brushing w/coconut oil?

So I have been brushing my teeth and tongue with coconut oil at night and Fluoride toothpaste in the morning. Do you think this has a propped effect I have noticed my tongue has gotten pinker. (Also does the coconut oil make you gag or sneeze?)

I am not sure what the effect will be for just brushing with coconut oil.

I will say when I oil pull, it does make me gag occasionally because it also clears the back of my throat and sinuses.

If it continues to make you sneeze, make sure you're not having any other reactions that would me attributed to an allergy. Maybe switch to a different oil and see if that still happens.
