Rating: 8.5/10

Editorial Review

Jack n Jill Natural Toothpaste received the Environmental Working Group (EWG)’s highest rating, which is always a good indication that a product is as healthy as it claims. This toothpaste is not a bargain, but for those who want the peace of mind that comes with a natural product they don’t have to worry about their children swallowing, the convenience might well outweigh the cost.

What Others Are Saying

Parents who have a difficult time getting children who hate the taste of toothpaste to brush rave about the flavor-free version of this toothpaste. Children (and adults) who really need a flavorless toothpaste seem to find this is the one they can handle best.

What customers liked least about this product was the cost, although a few said they didn’t mind paying more for its quality. A few users also reported skin irritation after use and wisely advised checking the label for ingredients (like silica) that you or your children might be sensitive to.

JASON Kids ONLY Toothpaste

Rating: 8/10

Editorial Review

JASON Kids ONLY Toothpaste uses calcium carbonate to keep teeth clean. Unlike many natural toothpastes, it foams, which can make the switch to natural toothpastes more seamless. It also contains aloe and calendula, which may help calm skin irritations around the mouth in sensitive kids. Like Jack n Jill, this toothpaste is pricey but parents who have had difficulties finding a toothpaste that doesn’t irritate their children’s skins say it’s worth it.

What Others Are Saying

Parents often claim that this is the only toothpaste their children will happily use. Many customers report that kids who developed rashes with other toothpastes saw a big improvement after switching to this brand.

Some users found the fruit flavors not to their tastes and preferred the adult mint option instead. It does contain an undisclosed ingredient (i.e. “flavor”), so parents with very sensitive children may want to be attentive to that.

 

Tom’s of Maine Anticavity Fluoride Children’s Toothpaste

Rating: 8.5/10

Editorial Review

Calcium and silica are the active cleaning ingredients in Tom’s of Maine Anticavity Flouride Children’s Toothpaste. Many natural toothpastes don’t contain fluoride, making this a solid option for those who want a less toxic fluoride toothpaste. Like JASON, this brand does make use of an undisclosed ingredient (again, “flavor”), which may impact your purchasing decision.

What Others Are Saying

Reviewers typically rave about this product. They appreciate having a natural alternative that still contains fluoride. They report that it’s suitable for those with allergies and sensitivities and that it’s usually very easy to get their children to brush with it. Many parent (and adult) users of this toothpaste found the flavors mild and appreciated having an alternative to mint.

Taste, of course, is subjective, but the general feel is that of the available flavors, strawberry is greatly preferable to orange-mango. Others thought the toothpaste foamed less, which put them off, and reported that it left a bad feel in their mouths. Many reviewers didn’t realize that the product contains SLS until they got their shipments and read the label.

Burt’s Bees Kids Toothpaste

A glycerin and silica-based toothpaste made with sodium fluoride 0.243% and other natural ingredients.

Burt’s Bees Kids Toothpaste

Rating: 9/10

Editorial Review

Burt’s Bees Kids Toothpaste comes in fluoride and fluoride-free options. It has a foamy lather to it, like conventional toothpastes, which many people say makes them feel like their teeth are cleaner. The flavor has been described as something akin to bubblegum, which might be a pro or a con depending on your or your children’s tastes. It’s less expensive than many other natural brands, which is always a bonus.

What Others Are Saying

Most parents found that their kids enjoyed the taste and would brush their teeth without too much hassle. People with sensitivities to strong flavors likewise enjoyed this product. They especially appreciated the price, relative to many other natural toothpastes.

Users with allergies to mint did caution others that they reacted to this toothpaste, even though mint is not listed on the label. A few customers reported that the toothpaste doesn’t fare well in heat. Apparently it liquifies at higher temperatures, so be aware of that if you live or travel in warmer climates.

Redmond Earthpaste

An all-natural, chemical-free toothpaste made with bentonite clay and flavored with essential oils.

Redmond Earthpaste

Rating: 8/10

Editorial Review

The cleansing agents in Redmond Earthpaste are as natural as they come: bentonite clay and salt. The company has consciously made no attempt to replicate the experience of using conventional toothpastes. It doesn’t include any product whiteners, so it’s the colour of clay, a colour the company itself describes itself as “ugly.” It also does not contain foaming agents, making for a very different look and feel while brushing.

What Others Are Saying

Users found the flavors to be mild and were pleasantly surprised that it didn’t taste as earthy as they had expected. By and large, reviewers claimed their mouths felt cleaner. They also enjoyed the gentle abrasion of this product and felt it had made their teeth whiter.

Some stated that the toothpaste felt like it didn’t spread well and dissolved as they were brushing. Even users who liked the product warned that there is a gritty feel to it that lingers after they’ve used it. Lead is a topic reviewers regularly debate – they typically recommend doing further research if you’re concerned.
