For natural products, we usually have the feeling: "That can only do us good!". But then we have doubts about oral hygiene. Of course, you do not want to risk bad breath, tooth decay or even yellowish discoloration. Unfortunately, one reads again and again that in conventional toothpaste harmful ingredients are included. Fluoride is basically added because it makes tooth enamel more resistant and protects against tooth decay. In higher amounts, it should make the tooth but fragile.
Whether fluoride really harm the teeth is controversial. Only so much: Many of the ingredients contained do not help our teeth. Synthetic surfactants, artificial flavors or chemical binders are certainly not healthy. Natural toothpaste uses only pure natural substances, such as silica, chalk or sea salt. Although they do not foam like traditional toothpaste, they make our biting teeth just as clean and prevent tooth decay. Natural toothpaste not only aids in cleansing but also in the healing process in the oral cavity and keeps the bacteria in balance. So who wants to play it safe, should go for natural toothpaste. Free from artificial additives. Here are our 5 favorites!
