Bentonite Toothpaste

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp bentonite clay

  • 1/4 cup filtered water + more, if needed

  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted

  • 2 tsp baking soda

  • 15-20 drops of essential oils (I use combo of peppermint and thieves). You also can add more for a fresher taste.

  • You can also add a teaspoon of Hydrogen Peroxide if you perfer

*note you can make more by easily doubling or tripling the recipe!

Instructions

  1. In a non metal container, mix together bentonite clay, melted coconut oil, and water with a non-metal spoon until well-mixed.

  2. Add baking soda and essential oils and mix again.

  3. 
If the toothpaste is too thick, add a little bit of water at a time until it reaches the right consistency.

  4. Put in a glass or plastic container, where you can dip your toothbrush to use the toothpaste. Alternatively, if you have other people using the toothpaste as well, you can store in a bpa-free plastic squeeze tube.
