It's not COMPLETE horseshit. Certain oils have anti-microbial properties and I'm sure it does reduce the level of bacteria in the mouth. It also is known to reduce plaque

BUT where it may be horseshit is in how effective it is compared to just using mouthwash. I have no clue but my knee jerk reaction is that you could sub in an antimicrobial mouthwash and get the same results with much better flavor.
Seems like this is useful info should I get stuck on a tropical island and have access to only coconuts for oral health.
