I want to highlight a few oral products I’ve been using recently, including a new toothpaste I absolutely love. It’s from Weleda and it’s their salt toothpaste. The sodium chloride makes you salivate, which helps clean your mouth. There are also no nasty chemicals and a strong dose of menthol (peppermint oil) which is very tasty and refreshing.
I’d also like to mention another toothpaste I’ve tried recently, from the Natural Dentist, that has no sodium lauryl sulfate, lots of natural ingredients, but still contains flouride. I love everything about the toothpaste, save the plastic tube it comes in.
Last but not least, I have to mention the importance of using a natural floss, like this one from Dessert Essence. Some mainstream floss, such as Glide, contains PFOA’s to make it slide smoothly. These chemicals are the same ones found in Teflon, Goretex, and Stainmaster brands. It’s an extremely persistent and toxic chemical that you certainly don’t want in your mouth.
