Dentistry/Sulfur in Toothpaste

Advertisement

Expert: - 5/1/2006


Question
I'm developed an allergy to sulfur and it is becoming more aggressive. All the toothpastes I've seen use sulfur as an ingredient and I would like to know if you know of any toothpastes that do not contain sulfur? If not do you know of an alternative to cleaning teeth?
Thank you very much and have a blessed day.

Answer
I would investigate Tom's of Maine.
You could probably confirm the absence of  sulfur by contacting them. If that doesn't work out, go to a good health food store. They must have alternative all natural or "organic " toothpastes.
Good Luck,
