Mainstream toothpastes often contain fluoride, harsh detergents, and antibacterial agents that can damage the mouth’s natural ecosystem. This remineralising toothpaste recipe is a gentle, holistic alternative designed to strengthen enamel, detoxify the mouth, and promote lasting oral wellness.
Rich in silica, calcium, and magnesium, this formula nourishes your teeth, balances oral pH, and supports the beneficial bacteria that are essential for a healthy smile—without exposing your body to synthetic additives or preservatives.
