No Junk Ingredients
Earthpaste’s ingredients are all simple, clean, and real. It doesn’t contain any glycerin, fluoride, foaming agents, artificial coloring, or other junk ingredients you find in traditional toothpastes.
Redmond Clay
Earthpaste is the only toothpaste that contains our unique bentonite clay. Bentonite clay is a powerful natural tooth polisher that can help remove surface stains, bind to bacteria, and make the mouth more alkaline.
Redmond Clay:
Binds to bacteria, helps neutralize acids in the mouth, as well as aids in polishing and remineralizing teeth.
Activated charcoal:
Has antimicrobial properties and potentially removes surface stains. A lot of people report a powerful whitening effect from charcoal but there aren’t scientific studies to prove that yet. Our tests on clay toothpaste vs. clay toothpaste with charcoal show they whiten/remove stains about equally.
Real Salt:
Bacteria can’t survive in salt (which is why it’s used to preserve meat). These antibacterial properties can benefit the teeth and gums. That’s why salt water mouth rinses are often recommended by dentists.
Xylitol:
The plaque-causing bacteria in your mouth typically use glucose for food, but they try to consume xylitol too (even though they are unable to use it as a fuel source). Once absorbed, the xylitol blocks their ability to consume glucose and causes these harmful bacteria to starve.
Menthol:
Has antimicrobial properties that can combat the bacteria that contribute to plaque. It’s also been shown to relieve oral discomfort and canker sores. We always use natural not synthetic menthol.
Tea tree oil:
Has antimicrobial properties that can combat oral bacteria and act against biofilms. It also has inflammation-soothing properties that can support healthy teeth and gums.
Other essential oils:
Essential oils found in various varieties of Earthpaste (like peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen, citrus, and cinnamon oil) also have antimicrobial benefits, contain antioxidants, ease inflammation, and make Earthpaste taste great.
