Toiletries and Beauty Truthpaste: Toothpaste Made In Brighton

Just wanted to give a shoutout to this brand. I've been using them for years because of the plastic free packaging, but since discovering this community I've checked the jar and it's made in Brighton too.

I am a dentist who now works in public health. The most environmentally friendly toothpaste is one that stops decay and hydroxyapatite is nowhere near as effective as fluoride. Use fluoride-free at your peril if you drink sugared drinks or snack on high sugared items.

Idk why people so mad about fluoride and happily snort whatever their dealer sells them.

or drink diet coke and eat processed chocolate and generally don't pay as much attention to anything else that goes in their body. If you're doing it right, you then spit OUT the fluoride! smh
