• Feb. 14, 2006 - Natural Toothpaste

First I want to wish everyone a Happy Valentines Day!  

We were running low on toothpaste and so I started looking for some natural recipes.  Well I found a couple of good ones, but since I didnt have all the ingredients I couldnt give them a try and then I found a basic recipe that calls for three ingredients all of which I have on hand, the third one which most people probably dont isnt really necessary, but more for flavor.  So I tried the recipe and my teeth havent felt this clean since the last time I went to the dentist (which I wont tell you how long ago that was).  Anyway, here is a basic recipe.  It is only good for one brushing, but pefect for getting a sample to see if you like it.

1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp hydrogen peroxide
1 drop of peppermint essential oil

mix together, put on your toothbrush and brush away....just be careful you might start foaming at the mouth!

Enjoy!

Thanks for that recipe - I have been trying to find something I could use - I am currently using Tom's Natural Toothpaste - not too bad and I found it at WalMart.
Thanks for you sweet comment about the wedding picture - I have added a few more today.

thanks for this easy recipe for toothpaste. My greataunt used to brush her teeth with a mixture of salt and baking soda, but your works fine. I wonder if the salt would wear away the enamel? Jill
