Brighten Your Smile The Right Way
When you think about all the chemicals in your life, it's unlikely your mind goes to your toothpaste, despite the fact that it's something you put in your mouth on a daily basis. The lining of the inside of your mouth is made up of highly permeable membranes, meaning whatever you put in your mouth is easily absorbed into you blood stream.
But What's So Bad About My Toothpaste?
Here's what dentist Mark Burhnenne, DDS, has to stay about common ingredients found in name brand toothpastes:
- Triclosan, a pesticide and hormone disruptor.
- Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) which causes canker sores for many people.
- Artificial colorings (Toothpaste does not need to be blue!)
- Fluoride, which can be toxic if swallowed and doesn’t even work in toothpaste.
- Highly abrasive ingredients, which damage enamel, making teeth sensitive and more prone to gum recession and cavities. Toothpaste should be only a little bit abrasive—this graininess aids the brushing motion to remove the biofilm of the tooth.
Do Your Mouth A Favor - Make The Switch
Our toothpaste only contains safe, natural and dentist approved ingredients.
- Coconut Oil: Helps prevent candida and restore a healthy microbiome.
- Cocoa: Promotes remineralization of the teeth
- Baking Soda: Helps restore proper pH from acidic foods and drinks, which can help prevent tooth decay.
