Why Organic Tooth Powder Is Better Than Tooth Paste

By Anthony Schmidt


There are different ways to which people think they can keep their teeth healthy. While some prefer organic tooth powder, others say that using pastes is better. In any case, what really matters the most is what works better for the user. However, there are many reports suggesting that tooth powders may have gained more acceptance than the pastes.

One of the reasons why tooth powders work more effectively is that they have abrasives. The abrasives are responsible for the quick cleaning power of the powders. It is for this reason that people with plaques are often advised to go for powder instead of tooth pastes. Even when a tooth brush is absent, one can use any dental powder with satisfaction. This is not the case with tooth pastes as they always require a tooth brush because of their slippery nature.

Moreover, powders are generally cheaper. They come most often in small cups making it an affordable option for students. Some of the organic forms contain mint, which also serves as an antibacterial agent.

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.

Baking powders are not sweet so children will not be tempted to lick it the way the do with toothpaste. The problem with licking toothpaste is that the fluoride content in it makes it poisonous. If fluoride is swallowed in large quantities, death may result, and this is certainly not what anyone wants. To avoid this, especially in homes with lots of kids, use organic tooth mouth wash.

If fluoride were the only harmful dangerous element in pastes, then life would have been a little easier. Unfortunately, there are other substances that make the substance still unfit for regular use. One of them is the substance known as triclosan. Triclosan is bad for the endocrine system and water life will suffer when anyone who just used it pours saliva into water bodies.

Tubes of toothpaste also have glycerin that prevents remineralization. This means that it prevents important minerals from forming on the teeth. This is bad because assuming there is a wound on the gum, the teeth will hardly heal since it has something that will prevent natural healing process. On the other hand, powders contain bentonite clay. This substance binds to toxins making them easier to remove. While glycerin prevents the teeth from enjoying some important minerals, bentonite clay supports remineralization.

There is a substance in a paste that makes them even more harmful. This substance is the flavor that is believed to contain MSG. MSG is not written as the main ingredient in pastes, but you can suspect it anytime you see the word, "flavor." Although not many people agree with this, it is still widely accepted that the presence of MSG in substances has resulted into heart palpitations, headache, flushing, numbness, chest pain, and weakness.
