What I Like
I love the tablet format for reducing plastic and making travel easy. No liquids, no mess, and they’re simple to toss in a bag.
The ingredient list is straightforward and avoids SLS and many of the heavier additives people often want to avoid in oral care.
Xylitol is a beneficial addition that supports a healthier oral environment without using artificial sweeteners.
There are no obvious petroleum-derived ingredients, such as mineral oil or petrolatum.
EWG rating (EWG analyzer): 1.
Things to Keep in Mind
The tablet format feels different from toothpaste. Texture and foaming are minimal, and it may take a few uses to adjust to the “chew, then brush” routine.
Chewing thoroughly before brushing helps create a smoother paste and more even coverage.
This formula includes essential oils (peppermint, tea tree, lemon) that may be stimulating for some people.
Sensitive Mouth & Pregnancy Considerations
If you’re sensitive to strong flavors or essential oils, start slowly or alternate with a milder option to gauge tolerance.
Essential oil transparency: essential oils naturally contain aromatic compounds that may be stimulating for some individuals. Personal tolerance varies, and comfort should guide use.
