Alright i have just gotten so sick and tired of all the toothpaste i have used in my life, until about a week ago, i thought that i was forced to use this chemical crap. So i learned from a very smart mexican lady that baking soda works as toothpaste. My problem has been recessive gums (gingivitus) and i learned that baking soda not only works for that but totally whitens your teeth. I have been using baking soda every day since, and my teeth are whiter than ever, and my recession is slowly starting to get better. I plan to never use toothpaste again hopefully, i hate fluoride that much. Also not sure about the sorbital, I'm gonnah search to see what that shit did to me. So yeah i totally reccomend this.
baking soda is great! i used to dip my toothbrush w/regular toothpaste on it into a box of baking soda whenever i brushed...now i just use baking soda toothpaste - great invention, what took them so long? lol you can also buy all natural toothpaste from the health food store, it's some pretty good stuff - i like the one that tastes like anise
Yeah np. I just hope the suff you use isn't sensodyne. That stuff has extreme amounts of fluoride in it. I used that sometimes for my teeth it works for cavities but i made sure to only use it once every few days. And psycadelic godess, yeah glad you knew about it, i would probably try the all natural toothpaste but i think it has sugar in it to make it taste good and thats bad for your teeth.
Wow, nice one, bicarb is awesome xD So do you just dip your tooth brush in it? Doesn't it taste a bit... bicarbish? XD
Use this with it: http://www.amazon.com/Toms-Maine-Cl...-4000361?ie=UTF8&s=hpc&qid=1246575370&sr=8-11
Yeah tastes like salt but i'm so used to it by now. I have a big bag of it and just dip my toothbrush in it and get it a little bit wet. Its kinda hard to get wet cause it washes away easily. Def zepplin that stuff looks great.
Ok i need to admit something. I gave in to the regular toothpaste again last night and tonight. My gingivitus is out of control again, and the baking soda wasn't doing as good as a job as triclosan apparantly does. I really hate giving into the shit, but you gottah do what you gottah do. Hopefully i can find a toothpaste with triclosan in it but no flouride. That would be great. If i can't find that, then it is almost a hard decision between having no teeth or having flouride toxins.
Baking soda isn't really all that great for your teeth everyday. It's too harsh on the tooth enamel. I think it's okay to use like once or twice a week safely.
I use the Toms of Maine Whitening, but I used the Kiss MY Face stuff for a while. I can't use fluoride toothpaste anymore. It makes me sick... srsly. It sounds nuts, but I've been off of it for so long I think I've become intolerant to it. I also use one made from essential oils that I get from this company my mom orders essential oil stuff from. I think it's called Young Living. They make a mouthwash too. Tastes like shit, but it works.
Oh, that's so cool. I also hear that baking soda could also be used as a utensil cleanser. I don't know if that really worked because I haven't tried it.
Tom's of Maine is the only toothpaste I buy. Used to be hard to get in my area but I find it in most grocery stores now. No more special trips across town to the health food store! ZW
