★★★★★ What customers say
I have been using this for over a year. My dentist has noticed a difference in how long my hygienist has to work on my teeth. My teeth have never felt so clean.
Julia P.
I have tried both the charcoal and the non-charcoal tooth powder. I love them both. I also feel I have seen a difference in the whitening of my teeth over the past few months.

What is tooth powder, and is it better than toothpaste?
Tooth powder is one of the oldest ways to clean teeth, brought up to date. Instead of a paste held together with water, binders, and a plastic tube, you get the active cleaning ingredients in dry form. For our powder that means calcium bentonite clay and calcium carbonate to gently polish, baking soda to clean and freshen, and xylitol, which is naturally sweet and a favorite of dentists.
Better is a matter of priorities. Tooth powder wins on ingredients and waste: no plastic tube, no synthetic foaming agents, nothing you cannot pronounce. Toothpaste wins on familiarity and, in most cases, added fluoride. If fluoride matters to you, our Unpaste tablets include it. If a clean, plastic-free routine matters most, the powder is your answer.
