    With all this negative information about floride, I wonder if anyone has some good ideas for making natural toothpaste...

    Baking soda in a paste with a bit of aniseed oil to make it taste/smell better. The baking soda still makes me salivate like a rabid cow though

    A European dentist recommended drinking a up of tea a day to protect against plaque and cavities.

    Thyme is a disinfectant/antibacterial.

    Just thought I'd give some reasoning for my ealier post. I'm doing the same thing, along with shampoo, conditioner, etc.

    I was just wondering this the other night...Even the baking soda toothpaste I by has fluoride? Hmm...Anyways...I was thinking about going to just baking soda which I think I'll do.

    And the tea idea is awesome! Thank for that info too :)

    I use baking soda and peroxide sometimes . Cleans better than commercial toothpaste imo . The peroxide acts as a whitener . I mix it up like a paste . Just make sure not to swallow it .

    Be careful with baking soda/peroxide or the mix.

    They tend to scrape the enamel off your teeth.

    Baking soda is an abrasive, and although, it is good as a natural cleaner for your teeth, don't use too much.

    If you are looking to begin using it as a toothpaste, I suggest making a water/baking soda mix but don't put TOO much baking soda in it.

    Seaweed , really ? Yuck ! I don't know if I would trust just seaweed to get my mouth clean and fresh .

    I would be scared I'd end up flossing with a big boat rope , because of tooth loss :D
