There are many all-natural alternatives to toothpaste, but listed below are the some of the most popular ones.

Essential Oils: These types of oils can be purchased from your local health store or from a trustworthy online shop. All you need to do is dip your toothbrush in these oils and brush. Ask an employee at the health food store for more information on what types of oils are best for your teeth.

Sea Salt: Sea salt is a great alternative to toothpaste and very simple to use. Simply stick your toothbrush in the sea salt and brush as normal. You may also put the sea salt in water to soak and then simply dip your toothbrush into it before you brush.

Coconut Oil: Coconut oil is yet another excellent alternative to toothpaste. It has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal qualities that are very useful in eliminating plaque in your mouth. Coconut oil works extremely well by itself as well as when combined with other ingredients listed.

Natural Soap: Most people don't realize that you can brush using natural soap. It does indeed taste a bit soapy, however if you would like to give it a try then it would be a good idea to use a natural soap that has a peppermint-like flavor.

Oil Swishing: Essentially all you have to do is swish around one tablespoon of oil, such as coconut, for a few minutes. After that, brush with plain water or with the other alternative solutions in this list.

Herbal Powders: Herbal powders may be used instead of toothpaste. They do a great job of cleaning your teeth and gums. The herbal ingredients in these powders can also help to reduce swelling and pain if an infection has developed in your mouth.

Baking Soda: Baking soda is one of the most well-liked natural alternatives to toothpaste. Much like sea salt, you can simply dip your toothbrush into the baking soda and brush as usual. You also have the option of dissolving the baking soda in water beforehand, after which you can dip your toothbrush in for a second and brush.

Many people like to blend in a couple of drops of peppermint oil to provide your mouth with that fresh minty flavor we all love to experience after cleaning our teeth.

Hydrogen Peroxide: Hydrogen peroxide is well-known for cleaning and whitening our teeth. In fact, a lot of people use it as a natural alternative to toothpaste. Simply dip your brush into the hydrogen peroxide and brush. It is more effective if you dip your brush in hydrogen peroxide first, and then in a blend of sea salt and baking soda for the best results.

The only possible issue with hydrogen peroxide is that for those who have amalgam fillings, peroxide can pull out the mercury in your fillings which will be absorbed into your body.

Tooth Soap: For those who do not like the idea of using natural soap in their mouth, as mentioned above, there are brands out there that are especially created to use for your teeth. Make sure that you try to look for one without all those harmful artificial additives.

Before you try any of the above methods it would be a good idea to consult a professional to make sure that the natural alternative you choose will work for you without any problems.
