Here is my recipe for toothpaste or TTOP, as my nephew dubbed it. It doesn't taste great like regular toothpaste, but it isn't as salty as my original recipe that I found online.
Ingredients:
Extra Virgin Coconut Oil (EVCO), 4 tsp
Baking soda, 1/8 tsp
Tea tree essential oil, 2 - 3 drops
Mix ingredients and store in container. I was using a small plastic container with a lid, but I just made some and used a travel-sized shampoo dispenser. I will let you know how this new dispenser works.
Where to purchase the ingredients:
EVCO - I purchased at GNC.
Tea tree essential oil - I purchased at Chuck's Healthfood Store.
Baking soda - I purchased a really big bag at Costco
What I've been told:
* Baking soda changes the pH in your mouth. Too much will not allow the enzymes in your mouth to kill the bacteria.
* Tea tree oil kills bad bacteria in your mouth.
