Remineralizing Toothpaste
Ingredients
- Remineralizing Toothpaste Ingredients
- 5 parts Calcium powder
- 1 part Diatomaceous Earth (optional- contains trace minerals and silica. UPDATE: A reader noted that DE can be abrasive and is not needed with the baking soda, so if you don’t have DE… no worries!)
- 2 parts Baking Soda
- 3 parts Xylitol Powder– This ingredient is not completely necessary, but just keeps it from tasting bitter.
- 3-5 parts coconut oil to get desired texture
- Optional ingredients: Essential oils for flavor (mint, cinnamon, and orange are all good), Myrrh and Trace Minerals

Directions
- Remineralizing Toothpaste Instructions
- Mix all powdered ingredients (calcium, Baking Soda, Xylitol) well in a bowl.
- Add Coconut Oil one part at a time until you get desired consistency.
- Add any optional ingredients, including Essential Oils for flavor (my favorite is Peppermint Orange)
- Store in small container like ½ pint glass jar. To use, either dip clean toothbrush into it, or use Popsicle stick or spoon to put on toothbrush. I’ve also thought of storing in a plastic bag with a corner cut off to be able to squeeze like toothpaste, but haven’t tried it yet.
- Notes
- natural homemade remineralizing toothpaste ingredientsFor this recipe, “part” denotes whatever unit of measurement you are using. For instance, if part=tablespoon, you would need 5 tablespoons calcium powder, 1 tablespoon diatomaceous earth, etc.
