Why Use Natural Tooth Powder
Because the toothpastes available in drugstores contain:
- Fluoride which in larger doses is dangerous to children and in adults can impair thyroid function, cause tooth and bone decay and other health problems. (Fluoride is a by-product of aluminum manufacturing and we all know by now how dangerous aluminum is.) Even worse are fluoride salts found in many toothpastes (sodium fluoride and / or fluorosalicic acid) which in the past were used as… a rat poison!
- Glycerin, a substance that prevents teeth’ reenamelization.
- Silica which is abrasive and damages tooth enamel.
Healthy teeth are important to your appearance and overall health, not to mention: finances. Preserving your teeth for as long as possible matters, but given a choice between a commercial toothpaste that may put your teeth and your health at risk and a natural tooth powder, choose the latter. Protect your teeth, your health and your money!
