What I Like

I like that this formula is certified natural through NATRUE, which sets clear standards around ingredient sourcing and formulation.

It’s fluoride-free and uses sea salt and baking soda for cleansing, appealing to consumers seeking a simpler, mineral-based approach to oral care.

The herbal extracts (myrrh, ratanhia root, horse chestnut bark) are traditionally used to support gum health and oral hygiene, giving this toothpaste a more classic, botanical feel.

It avoids petroleum-derived ingredients like mineral oil and petrolatum.

EWG rating (EWG analyzer): 1.

Things to Keep in Mind

The texture and taste are noticeably different from conventional toothpaste. It foams very little and has a salty, minty flavor that may require some adjustment.

This is a more mineral-forward formula. For people with very sensitive teeth or gums, ultra-mild pastes may feel stronger at first.

Sensitive Mouth & Pregnancy Considerations

This toothpaste contains peppermint oil and naturally occurring fragrance components (such as limonene and linalool). If you’re very fragrance-sensitive, these may feel stimulating.

If you’re pregnant or nursing and prefer to limit essential oils, start with a small amount or alternate with a simpler toothpaste to assess comfort.

This formula does not contain fluoride, retinoids, or ingredients typically flagged for avoidance during pregnancy.
