Reasons To Take Organic Tooth Powder Instead Of Toothpastes

By Anthony Schmidt


You can take care of your teeth by employing different measures. However, while some are harmful, others are considered safer and are advocated by health practitioners. Not many people know the pros of organic tooth powder, especially when compared to toothpaste. The lucky few who are acquainted with the numerous benefits and side effects of some major toothpaste always wish they could enlighten others.

Powders are made more of abrasives and this could be the reason why they are more effective for taking care of plaques. Most tooth pastes on the other hand lack this special feature, which makes it look like a child's play sometimes when scrubbing it on teeth, even with a tooth brush. You may notice this by seeing how slippery pastes are when used alone. It is more convenient to use the powders without a tooth brush than doing the same with a tooth paste.

In addition, powders come at affordable prices. They are often packaged in small containers, making them more affordable. The organic ones have mint as one of their ingredients, and mint is a good agent for fighting bacteria.

More work can be achieved by using powders than with toothpaste. This means they are actually more convenient to use as well. In case you traveled a long distance and forgot to take your brush along, your teeth powder can still help in improving your oral health.

Lack of fluoride in powders makes them less toxic and safer for the children. Fluoride is poisonous when swallowed and can even cause death. Unfortunately, most children don't know this and they are more at risk because of the appealing taste of toothpaste. Mouthwash powders don't taste as sweet as toothpaste so there will be no temptation for your child to prefer licking it instead of using it strictly for teeth cleaning.

Fluoride is not the only dangerous element in toothpaste. There is something else known as triclosan which calls for serious concern among the paste users. The reason is that triclosan is known to be a skin irritant. Moreover, it is bad for the endocrine system and harmful to water life.

While bentonite clay is present in tooth powders, the same is absent in pastes. Instead, pastes contain a substance known as glycerin. Glycerin doesn't seem to be helpful as it does not allow the teeth to enjoy certain minerals, which also affects their development. Bentonite clay, on the other hand, can supply important minerals to the teeth to make them healthier. Technically, one can say that toothpaste prevents remineralization while powders support it.

Do not let the sweet flavor of toothpaste lure you to preferring it to the powders. Many toothpaste flavors are actually MSG which is bad for the health especially when used much. Some of the problems associated with flavors containing MSG include headache, flushing, sweating, facial pressure or tightness, numbness, chest pain, weakness, nausea and heart palpitations. Unfortunately, not many people agree that MSG could be responsible for all these and that is because the reaction occurs slowly and may take a while before they can be noticed.
