How to Swap to Non-Toxic toothpaste:

Here's how to swap to non-toxic toothpaste:

What to know about toothpaste

Toothpaste is something you use at least twice a day, and it goes directly in your mouth — one of the most absorbent areas of your body. That makes the ingredients in your toothpaste worth paying attention to. Welpr looks at whether a toothpaste uses simple, food-grade ingredients and avoids synthetic additives like sulfates, artificial dyes, artificial sweeteners, and undisclosed ingredient blends.

  • Because toothpaste is used so frequently and in direct contact with soft tissue, it's one of the highest-priority products to review.
  • Welpr favors fluoride-free formulas that use effective alternatives like hydroxyapatite, xylitol, or baking soda.

Review what you already use

Grab the toothpaste you use most often and use the Welpr Personal Care and Cosmetic Scanner to check it. The scanner can read your ingredient label and flag anything that doesn't meet Welpr's standards.

  • Check the toothpaste you use daily first, then move on to any specialty products like whitening pastes or kids' toothpaste.
  • Look at the ingredient list for terms like "FD&C" dyes or "proprietary blend" — these signal ingredients that may not be fully disclosed.

Use your current toothpaste more carefully

If you're not ready to replace your toothpaste right away, small adjustments can reduce how much you're exposed to its ingredients. This is especially worth considering for kids, who are more likely to swallow toothpaste.

  • Use a pea-sized amount — most people use far more than needed, and less product means less exposure.
  • For young children, supervise brushing and use only a rice-grain-sized amount to minimize what gets swallowed.

Choose cleaner replacements

Look for toothpaste with a short, simple ingredient list made up of food-grade components. Welpr recommends fluoride-free formulas that rely on alternatives like hydroxyapatite, xylitol, or baking soda for effective cleaning.

  • Avoid products that list sulfates, parabens, PEGs, triclosan, artificial dyes, or artificial sweeteners — and be cautious of any formula that hides behind "proprietary blends."
  • Click the button above to shop Welpr Approved toothpaste.
