A viewer asks: “Creator has suggested Good-Gums “would be of great value for general use and avoids the liabilities of commercial toothpaste.” Unfortunately, this company does not ship outside the USA. To what extent would these or other UK available dental powders such as “Earthpowder” (phwisdom.com), “Kingfisher” (kingfishertoothpaste.co.uk), “Lavera: Complete Care Mint” (mypure.co.uk), “Natural Toothpaste Propolis & Myrrh” (wellbeingisland.co.uk), “Natural Toothpaste – Tea Tree” (thecleanmarket.co.uk) likely be safe and similarly beneficial?” What can we tell him?

We see all of these as being preferable to the traditional toothpaste containing fluoride, and that is a worthwhile health preservation goal in its own right. Not all will be equally effective in supporting gum health, but we see that as a secondary issue in the importance of avoiding ingesting toxins.
