Re: Looking for a non-flouride toothpaste for a 4 yo (more)

[Guest guest]

Try a health food store for Spry Toothpaste. Tom's of Maine has a

non-fluoride version but only at the health food stores. The

supermarket version still has fluoride. Spry has a whole line of great

toothpastes. It has Xylitol and is very good stuff. I've heard that

Oral B stuff is just a waste.

Theres also a group called veryyoungkidsteeth-- great tips there

too.

[Guest guest]

My son's OT just recommended we try Tom's of Maine as it is all natural

(without fluoride) and there are a lot of strong flavors that might

provide the necessary feedback for him to actually let us brush his

teeth. We haven't tried it yet, but I thought it was worth a go!

I have a 5 yo and a 9 yo who about cried when I tried Tom's toothpaste - as it

is VERY strong.  I was able to brush the 9 yo's teeth, but he had a funny look

on his face and wanted to spit out (something that he, too, is not very good at)

- usually he'll swallow it (though I am working on him to spit out.  My five yo

tried a little on his finger while I was brushing the older ones teeth and then

he refused to let me even try saying, " Too hot, Momma " .  I didn't push it of

course.  I had them try mine, so maybe not the best flavor.  I bought the

Natural antiplaque tartar control plus whitening toothpaste (peppermint

flavor).  If

there are other flavors, it might work for you, but I would not suggest getting

this one!!!!!!

Blessings to You,

Is this a different one as here it says it has fluoride?

https://www.vitacost.com/-Sea-Fresh-CoQ10-Tooth-Gel-

Toothpaste#IngredientFacts

Avoiding fluoride is key. Another helpful thing is to avoid aluminum

in the packaging. Lastly, we found out the hard way that avoiding

this popular toothpaste ingredient is necessary.

Hey Liz!

Nope the " sea weed " toothpaste is fluoride free. I got the quote below

from the Natural website.

" Sea Fresh Toothpaste & Mouthwash

Non-Fluoride, Cooling Spearmint Flavor

Sea Fresh has tapped into the most important resource of the 21st

century for healthy teeth and gums - the sea. For hundreds of years

our food came with minerals from the soil. Erosion has lowered the

soil's mineral content, yet stress and exposure to environmental

pollution have raised the value for trace minerals.

Sea Fresh has tapped the ancient sea beds of the Great Salt Lake in

Utah for natural calcium, zinc, potassium, magnesium, a multitude of

trace minerals and Dead Sea Salts to help care for teeth and gums.

From the crystal clear waters of Klamath Lake, Oregon, Sea Fresh has

harvested Biologically-Active Blue-Green Algae - cleansing,

freshening & gum-soothing. From the oceans, Sea Kelp and Sea Parsley

combine with essential Oils of Spearmint to create Sea Fresh powerful

breath freshening.

Plus, plaque reduction from exclusive Perilla Seed Extract known to

block sugar acids. Furthermore, Bamboo Powder, never before in

toothpaste, combines with Silica and Calcium Carbonate for triple-

powered whitening without chemicals or harsh abrasives.

Directions: Use twice daily to help prevent: Dullness, Stains, Dry

Mouth, Discolorations, Bad Breath, Tartar Buildup, Sugar Acids. "

The owner of NaturalNews.com is

involved in shoptoearth as well and is one of the many people

advising which are some of the best organic manufacturers, and they

keep adding more.

Also I am using this for me and my family loves it (funny if you

think about it that I found a sea kelp toothpaste!!!) But as you'll

read from any review about this toothpaste -don't let the algae and

sea water scare you -it tastes amazing even to people that don't like

natural stuff - it's a best kept secret favorite toothpaste of many.

Guess in real life most don't want to admit they brush their teeth

with sea kelp?

Besides -on my last message for the little kids I posted another that

is also non fluoride.

Our dentist has recommended never using fluoride, there are many

studies possibly linking fluoride to harmful damage to enamel of

developing teeth (fluorosis), neurological effects (incl. lower IQ),

endocrine effects, and bone effects. It was also recommended that we

avoid toothpaste containing glycerin since the glycerin really coats

the teeth without cleaning well, potentially trapping bacteria etc.

We use either toothsoap or Tropical Traditions tooth cleaner. Both are

all natural. True to its name, toothsoap has a slightly soapy taste

but even my very picky 8 year old is fine with the citrus flavor and

if you stick to the recommended dose (just a couple of drops), the

taste is minimal (I stopped noticing it pretty quickly personally).

HTH, Kim

There is always the old fallback of baking soda too.

Pam

Flouride is not recommended - despite decades of previous marketing to

use it. According to reports from the dental associations and related

research, it doesn't prevent cavities - it makes the teeth more

vulnerable (in addition to the other really BAD neurological and other

side-effects of flouride and flouride-based products).

Cavities can also form when the pH of the mouth is out of balance and

that can be diet-related.

I'll see if I can dig up some archives and other info from around the

net to re-share....it make take me a while as we're in a 3-day holiday

here and I have the kids home. In the meantime, you may try a quick

Google search for " flouride dental dangers " -- lots of articles there.

One thorough site is www.flouridealert.org

Liz (aka ilizzy) will probably write soon, too - she's the " queen of

flouride danger references "

In my experience many parents do not recommend it but I have never

had a dentist not recommend flouride. (In fact both dentists our

family sees recommended flouride suplementation. I always thought

our water was flouridated but it is not. I checked the report we get

mailed to us every year and was surprised to discover that. I do not

supplement flouride. We just use flouride toothpaste.) My youngest

(5 1/2) stopped having cavities when we started flouride toothpaste.

Prior to that we used Orajel. It was not very effective at cavity

prevention in our experience. He does have a problem with his teeth

(It's low enamel I think. I cannot recall what it is called -

hypofloridosis?)

I have to check with another dentist friend but my one friend who is

Dakota's orthodontist (Dakota has I-braces!) says that she has " mixed

feelings) about fluoride because she sees what happens to teeth of

people that don't have fluoride -but she knows while it's good for

the teeth it's not good for the body. So it's not all black and

white with people that work as professional dentistry either.

BTW -she did check out the 's toothpaste for me and her eyebrows

went up when she read the ingredients -she especially appeared to be

impressed with the CoQ10 and said this looks really good. Bibi (Dr.

Ramos) also pointed out that " you are aware that many things we use

in dentistry are from the sea aren't you? " I said " no " So she

brought up the example of agar which is made form sea algae to make

molds for the mouth. Also it appears that some toothpastes

contain fluoride and some do not -so have to check as it can work for

you either way!

Fluorisis is what it is called. It affects more than teeth. Lowers

IQ, affects the pineal gland, damages bone. If you google fluoride

action network the history of fluoride is there and why dentists

mistakenly recommend it.

75% of the U.S. has fluoridated water. Even in places where it is

defined as not fluoridated per water reports they can add up to 1 ppm

(dangerous and linked to bone cancer in boys)without it being

considered fluoridated.

Best to get it out. Reverse osmosis for drinking.

Fluoride Damages Teeth, New Warning By Dentists

17 Jul 2007

Fluoride ingestion, once thought to reduce cavities, can lead to dental

fluorosis -- white spotted, yellow, brown and/or pitted tooth enamel.

Modern science indicates fluoride absorbs into tooth enamel topically,

primarily.(3)

Studies link dental fluorosis to children's kidney damage (4) and bone

fractures (5).

The ADA and Centers for Disease Control recently advised that

fluoridated water should not be mixed into concentrated infant formula,

in order to decrease dental fluorosis risk -- now a growing U.S.

problem. (6)

Never safety-tested by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) (7),

fluoride supplements do more harm than good.(8)

Being a " dutiful " American-raised mother, I asked our dentist about

flouride a few years ago and he laughed at me for having asked, saying

that flouride is not added to our acqueduct water supply and that we do

not need to give the kids flouride supplements at all. I will offer

that we do not live in the US and that professional opinions on this

subject do vary depending on where in the world you live. They DO

however put flouride in most toothpastes here just the same, although we

can find some without for both adults and kids. We're currently using

Thieves toothpastes from Living Young, but they are very spicey and I

would not recommend them for small children.

There are MANY dentists who no longer recommend fluoride for children

or adults -- mine included.
