Starter Kit (VEGAN)

We suggest cleaning the tongue cleaner regularly - every few weeks - by rubbing it with baking soda paste (rather than a chemical cleaning agent). This helps get rid of any residue that may have built up on the stainless steel.

The Spearmint Herbal Toothpowder Tabs have a refreshing herbal mint taste and the Mint-Free Herbal Toothpowder Tabs are fresh and earthy with just a hint of clove. We are used to sweet-tasting toothpastes, but in Ayurveda and Oriental medicine, balancing the mouth and oral microbiome requires some bitter-tasting ingredients. This is why neem and miswak have been used for centuries as natural antimicrobials with powerful oral health support. It may take a few days to get used to the taste, but we guarantee that you will love the effect on your mouth.

As pet parents know, not everything that is healthy for us is good for our furry friends. Herbal Toothpowder Tabs should be kept away from your pets because Xylitol, one of the ingredients beneficial to human oral health, can cause rapid hypoglycemia in pets. Much like grapes, which are nutritious for humans but should not be given to dogs, Xylitol is perfectly healthy and beneficial for us, but because it is processed differently in the bodies of other animals it should never be given to dogs and cats. BOTTOM LINE: Keep out of reach of pets, as Xylitol is poisonous to dogs. And be sure to check with your veterinarian.

Yes, we strive to make the most sustainable and environmentally friendly products possible. Here’s what that looks like:

Stainless Steel Tongue Cleaner:
Our Stainless Steel Tongue Cleaner is packaged in FSC-certified recycled paperboard and includes a designer travel pouch made from sustainable bamboo fabric.

Smart Floss:
Smart Floss® is one of the most eco-friendly, effective dental flosses available.

Container:
Smart Floss® is now in FSC-certified paperboard packaging which can be easily recycled.

Wax:
To ensure comfortable flossing and to keep the fibers performing effectively, we use a small amount of a vegetable and beeswax blend. To this, we add our acclaimed natural cardamom essential oil. We do not use petrochemical waxes or artificial flavors. No forever chemicals, ever.

Floss material:
Like many flosses, Smart Floss® is made of polyester fibers. Unlike other flosses, Smart Floss® is made in a proprietary, patented process that gives that softer, expanded effect while flossing. It is clinically proven to remove up to 55% more plaque than traditional brands. Why don't we use a natural material like silk or cotton? We have opted not to use silk due to the heavy processing and the treatment of the silkworms. Plus it cannot be processed in the same way as Smart Floss® and thus would be less effective in removing plaque. Cotton was used as dental floss at one time, but it is not used for floss anymore as it tends to fray or break easily or is harsher on gums and not as effective.

Herbal Toothpowder Tabs:
Our Herbal Toothpowder Tabs are packaged in infinitely recyclable glass bottles, sealed with a pesticide-free bamboo cap with a recycled aluminum insert. According to the World Health Organization, 6 toothpaste tubes per person are discarded annually. That's billions of tubes per year going into the landfill. Switch to our tabs in glass bottles, for a more convenient oral care experience while not harming the planet
