Coconut Oil Toothpaste
A homemade toothpaste that saves money and is good for your teeth.
Equipment
- 4oz glass jar
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 Tbsps Baking Soda may need to add more in summer, you want it to look more like a paste than soup
- 2 Tbsp Real salt or Ground Himalayan
- 1 tablespoon xylitol powder or Erythritol powder optional If you don’t have ground you can make your own by grinding granulated in a coffee grinder
- 1 tsp Clove Powder
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients and mix till all is combined and no lumps are left.
- Put the toothpaste in the 4oz jar.
- To use, put your brush in the paste and brush as usual. Make one for each person in your household so your not sharing germs.
- Also if you are short on ingredients you can halve the recipe. The container in the picture I think is more 2oz to 3oz, I reused a jar that had Honey in it.
- Here’s to a happy healthy smiles!
Notes
If your coconut oil is too hard you can warm it in a saucepan and then mix it with your other ingredients. Adjust salt and baking soda if you need to get a paste consistency.
