So I am running out of toothpaste again. But before I hurry out and go find some at the co-op, I'm researching online whether it's cost-effective or just purely worth making some for the heck of it. Check out these links:
OraMedia Site for Dental Self-Sufficiency - 7 ways to please yourself, and therefore please your dentist
Make your toothpaste flouride-free - in a balance of coconut oil and baking soda
Listen to Your Mother - the essential oils are what will make your blend special
Why make your own?
*You can say you make your own toothpaste
*You can design a paste to perfectly fit your mouth's needs
*Experimentation is fun
Of course the most important aspect to dental health is good diet. I have occasionally been drinking spearmint/spilanthes tea to supplement a happy, refreshed mouth. Though coconut and essential oils are not cheap, I'm going for it anyway. Since I already have tea tree oil, I will purchase peppermint and coconut oil, and blend in clove spice - combining a little of all of Mother's suggestions.
