Oh also, my dentist said you can just brush your teeth with water only... Tooth Paste does nothing really except make the comsumer by some.

I read where the 'goo' that comes off when using some pastes

are usually from the whitening brands.  

 

The ingredients used for whitening causes an irritation.  
Personal experience, I have to agree. 
Even with just one use.


@sidsmom  I still keep that recipe made up for teeth cleaning that you shared.  I use it a few times a week.  It really does give your teeth that good clean feeling.  The taste leaves a little to be desired though Woman WinkWoman Very Happy.

 

Are you still using it?


@tends2dogs 

🌼 Not as much as I should.
I moved a while back & lost track of my big bag of DE.

Need to get more...but not the huge 10lb amount!

Thanks for circling back with this.

If considering commercial products, Dr. Bronner's.

I've been using a special high fluoride prescription toothpaste I get from my dentist.  I have a tendency to get cavaties and it reduces them hugely.  It's a little pricey but saves me a lot of money.

@Kachina624      Yes. I also use a prescription high fluoride TP once a day.... has much higher fluoride than the over the counter TP on the market.

I use Sensodyne Rapid Relief toothpaste for sensitive teeth. It does what it says.

@SeaMaiden A hygenist told me that exact same thing.  Of course I paid no attention to it, told her I wouldn't and we had a good laugh.  She said "Me either!" LOL!!!

AP24 whitening toothpaste. It has fluoride also but really works. All you do is brush your teeth just like you normally do and it whitens them. So easy to use and the results are great.
