Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use tooth powder?
Dip a dry or slightly damp soft toothbrush into the jar, or sprinkle a little onto the bristles. Brush for two minutes, then rinse. A little goes a long way.
Does it foam?
No. There's no SLS or other foaming agent, so it feels different from supermarket toothpaste. Most people are used to it within a week.
How long does a jar last?
One 80g jar gives one person 3+ months of daily brushing, which works out at under $6 a month.
Does it contain fluoride?
No. It's fluoride-free and SLS-free, with no synthetic preservatives or artificial sweeteners.
Should I choose tooth powder or toothpaste?
Powder is concentrated, lasts a long time and travels well. If you prefer a familiar paste texture, try our Sweet Peppermint or Baking Soda Coconut Toothpaste.
Is it suitable for children?
For children, check with your dentist about the right toothpaste for their age. Many families use our Strawberry Coconut Toothpaste for kids.
