I don't doubt it'd taste awful, but aside from that?

You're really much better off with modern toothpaste.

We used to use it when we were kids. It made you gag from the taste but otherwise it never made us ill. I have family members who still use it and have for over 60 years and still alive and kicking.

It's not going to help prevent cavities.. just will help whiten. I've heard that daily use can wear down enamel, so maybe just opt for a few times a week. Should be fairly easy to do some research on the net or just ask your dentist.

I am wanting to stay away from floride and a lot of other stuff in tooth paste and I am a cheapscate, not gonna pay more than a few bucks for tooth paste. I'm also not worried bout whitening my teeth with my t paste.

There are some things you shouldn't "cheap out" on. Oral hygiene is one of them.

Why do you want to stay away from flouride? HM says there are people who believe that fluoride is a carcinogen and they are wrong. (he writes medical books about this stuff.)

xxblushesxx because I do not believe it's beneficial,and writing medical books isn't a guarantee, that it's not toxic no offence, cause there's people who write medical stuff and say it is toxic. True some people believe Dr Mercola is an idiot, but still, he does write medical articles, and he has a whole complete diet plan people follow.

There's also probably other things one doesn't need to be using in tooth paste, like what ever they use to make it so palatable to use, don't get me wrong I don't want tooth paste to be nasty, then it'd be kinda hard to bear using it, but still.

He also teaches at University, practices it, and is a highly regarded and sought after expert witness. He does know a thing or two about which you asked. Like he said baking soda isn't going to *hurt* you, but it's really not going to be as good for you as toothpaste.

Do you watch Squidbillies? Go check out the ep where they remove the fluoride from the water, and Dan Halen sells everyone vampire teeth. Then know that stopped clocks are right twice a day only if they have both hands.

There are some things you shouldn't "cheap out" on. Oral hygiene is one of them.

You can get a two pack of colgate from walgreens for under 6 bucks.

Have you wondered how many cents a day that would work out at?

Then offset that against the future cost of dental care....

I think only a jackass would come to the conlusion that baking soda is a better bet. But that's just my opinion.

I'm sorry, but I must ask; what, perchance, is a "squidbillie"?
Dan Halen is a great name!

Oh for pete's sake, just brush your damn teeth w/Colgate or Crest, rinse w/hydrogen peroxide (50% peroxide & 50% water) & that will suffice. Unless of course you're against the particles in the water then I'll suggest that you use bottle water or don't you trust that either? Then use filtered water unless of course there are particles in the filter.

Chrissy, Squidbillies is either a fabulous cartoon on Adult Swim, or a crime against nature! Possibly both. It's about a family of Georgia Land Squid, and their hillbilly adventures with alcohol, trucks, and similar pastimes.
