Most toothpastes come in difficult if not impossible to fully empty and recycle tubes; and even contain microplastics like Carbomer and PVP or 'sceptical' microplastics like Poloxamer 407 and PEG-32 and PEG-12 in the product itself. In contrast; PJN's Tooth Powder comes in an easily recyclable glass jar; and is made from all-natural ingredients; including a mineral-rich alternative to fluoride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-note\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"prod-title\"\u003eProduct Notes:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTooth powders were the most common means of cleaning your teeth in the 1800s; before the collapsible metal (and later; plastic) tubes were invented. However; they are still popular and\/or are making a resurgence in some quarters; either for environmental reasons or for their superior efficacy in controlling dental plaque and gingivitis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePure Joy Naturals' tooth powder includes a number of pure and natural ingredients with gentle scrubbing, detoxifying, anti-bacterial, breath-freshening, and protective factors. To help remineralize enamel, strengthen teeth, and reduce sensitivity, instead of using fluoride (which many people have issues with), it features hydroxyapatite - a naturally occurring form of calcium that makes up two-thirds of the mineral content of our bones and teeth. And to remove impurities and polish teeth without being too abrasive, that's been complemented with bentonite clay and Diatomaceous Earth (DE, which is rich in silica). A natural sweetener has been added to improve the taste: Xylitol, which helps combat harmful bacteria in the oral cavity instead of fostering it. It's also been infused with a number of natural herbs and essential oils including cloves, ground peppermint and spearmint to freshen the breath and support gum health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Ingredients\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Ingredients-title\"\u003ePure Joy Naturals Tooth Powder Ingredients:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca title=\"Living Clay - Detox Clay Powder - Calcium Bentonite\" href=\"https:\/\/www.avivahealth.com\/products\/living-clay-detox-clay-powder-calcium-bentonite\"\u003eBentonite\u003c\/a\u003e; 15% Hydroxyapatite; \u003ca title=\"NOW - Xylitol\" href=\"https:\/\/www.avivahealth.com\/products\/now-xylitol-powder\"\u003eXylitol\u003c\/a\u003e; \u003ca title=\"Diatomaceous Earth - Food Grade DE\" href=\"https:\/\/www.avivahealth.com\/products\/diatomaceous-earth\"\u003eDiatomaceous Earth\u003c\/a\u003e (Amorphous Silica); \u003ca title=\"New Roots Herbal - Cloves\" href=\"https:\/\/www.avivahealth.com\/products\/new-roots-herbal-cloves\"\u003eClove \u003c\/a\u003eBud Powder; PJN Bandits Wellness (\u003ca title=\"Marseille's Remedy - Thieves' Oil or Balm\" href=\"https:\/\/www.avivahealth.com\/products\/marseilles-remedy\"\u003eThieves\u003c\/a\u003e) Blend (Clove; Lemon; Cinnamon Bark; Eucalyptus; Rosemary; and Turmeric essential oils); and Peppermint and Spearmint Leaf Oils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"suggested\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"suggested-title\"\u003eSuggested Usage:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst; dampen your clean toothbrush's bristles with clean water; then open the jar and either shake or tap some tooth powder over the bristles; or dip the clean; damp toothbrush into the powder; until there's a small amount of powder coating on the bristles; and brush your teeth (and tongue!) as usual.
