Very nice toothpowder
I can't say enough for Neem and how many great uses it has. But this isn't just a tooth powder - it also has Xylitol, probiotics (in the form of S. Saliverus K12, and vitamin D). Go ahead and google streptococcus saliverus K12 - you will see that there have been some studies showing that it's a great probiotic for oral health that has been demonstrated to have a number of health benefits, including preventing plaque from sticking to teeth - a particular benefit for me. In addition, this is fluoride free, glycerine free, etc.<br /><br />I used tooth powder as a kid at times, so for me, there is little adjustment to this tooth powder. I do think that people who are really used to toothpaste might require a bit of an adjustment. This stuff foams up, but it doesn't have the same feel in the mouth as toothpaste, and it probably seems odd to sprinkle powder on a damp toothbrush and then expect your teeth to end up clean. But clean they will end up!<br /><br />This is obviously the cinnamon flavor, and to me, at least, this stuff tastes great! Better than any toothpaste I've used - I really look forward to it. I have my kids on this stuff, and they love it, too. And like most kids, if something doesn't taste good they won't go near it.<br /><br />A word of caution, though - this is a small bottle. All it takes is a few sprinkles and you can brush your teeth, but if you are expecting a lot of product, you'll be disappointed. The bottle itself notes that there's enough for around 200 brushings, and that seems about right (note though that I'm not sure that if you brush 2X/day, the probiotics will be alive and active after 100 days). Lastly, the price on Amazon is a good bit higher than on many other web sites, if you poke around. I'm a Prime member, so the free shipping really offsets the difference, but others might be better off elsewhere.<br /><br />Anyway, this is great stuff and I'm combining it now with Coral toothpaste (also fluoride and glycerine free) in an experiment. So far so good.<br /><br />POST-SCRIPT - 12/11/2014 - So a couple weeks ago I had a dentist appointment. Normally mine last quite a while - I get a lot of stuff on my teeth. This time... nothing. Hygienist had nothing to do. Dentist came in - poked around a bit - said "everything's OK." Done. I was in and out in 1/2 an hour - a record.<br /><br />So I swear by this stuff now.<br /><br />POST-SCRIPT - 5/21/2015 - teeth whiter than ever. Some old stains that I'd had forever are gone. Dental visits are shorter than ever. This stuff is tremendous.
