Peppermint Toothpaste 3oz toothpaste by Uncle Harry's Natural Products

The tooth paste has a different taste. It does not taste sweet but it still is awesome and smells divine. It makes the teeth squeaky clean . Breath smells fresh for long after brushing. A little goes a long way. So though the bottle is small it will last long. I love the cute glass bottle in which it comes.

This is the best toothpaste! Our whole family uses it and keeps the cavities away. It tastes kinda weird the first few times but then you get used to it. Actually we really like it now, your mouth feels so clean. This is the only toothpaste we buy and use now. Love the ingredients and results.

I've been using this toothpaste for about four months now so I thought it was time to leave a review. As many other reviewers have stated, the taste of this is very STRONG and can be difficult to get used to. The first time I used it, my instinct was to spit it out and gag. But I powered through and found that after a few days you get used to it somewhat. Here are some tips that should help: 1. A little goes a long way. You should not have a giant glob of this stuff on your toothbrush. I only lightly dab the top of my brush onto it, so that it's ever-so-slightly dusted with the toothpaste. That's enough, trust me. If you're spitting out chunks of the paste into the sink when you're done then you've used way too much. I do a lightly-dusted brushing on half of my mouth, then get more and do it again on the other half. Making sure that you're not using too much will make it much easier to use. 2. Let your saliva mix in - because this stuff doesn't foam it helps to lubricate it and also waters down the flavor a bit. It's not that it tastes bad, but the essential oils are very strong. 3. Uncle Harry's also makes remineralization drops that is very similar to this product, but in liquid form. Also very strong in taste. But I've found that swishing with that after brushing is helpful. I recently had a dental exam after several years of putting it off. I had expected to have at least four cavities - wouldn't have been surprised at all if there were more. Instead I had only one tiny one, that was so small the dentist didn't want to bother with it. Other than that my teeth looked fantastic. I'm hoping when I go back in for my next exam the small cavity will be gone (possibly due to the help of this product). I like the fact that this product contains magnesium and calcium. I have no idea if it's actually possible to remineralize the teeth by exposing them directly to those things, but I do know that the mouth is very absorbent and at the very least it's one way to get more vitamins into my system. I would advise everyone to give this the ol' college try. Expect the taste to be overwhelming at first - you will get used to it after a few days. And only use a tiny tiny bit. At the rate I seem to be going through it, it looks like a single jar will last me about six months, and I plan to continue using it from now on.

So I ordered this first and read the reviews after, which in retrospect was a really good thing, because I don't know if I would've still ordered it had I read all the opinions on this product. I had been reading up on the bad stuff in toothpaste for a long while, so I told myself that when I finish the tube of paste I had been currently using I'll get something better. Well I finished that tube about a month ago, and after realizing that I had pretty much squeezed every last drop that I could get out of it, I had no choice but to look into something that was healthier for my teeth. This product came highly recommended by one of the blogs I was reading as I was looking into alternative toothpastes. In my excitement to have found something that looked like it was everything healthy, I quickly ordered it, and only after a day or two did I go back to read the reviews, and then started getting anxious that I had made a mistake by ordering this product too hastily with everyone's complaints about the taste. But at that point it was too late, because the product had already shipped and I didn't have any toothpaste left. Well thankfully I've been using it for a month and I have to wonder what everyone's problem is with the taste. Like seriously, I don't know how much you guys put on your brush, but I have an electric toothbrush and all I do is just lightly pat it on the toothpaste and then brush. I make sure it's lightly coated, and that's really all I need to brush my teeth. Yes, the taste is salty, and it does take a little getting used to, but now, after a month of using it, I don't think I could ever go back to the sweet-tasting toothpaste I had been using until I switched. The first time I used it I looked at my teeth and thought "wow, they look so white!" which says something to me, because I never noticed my teeth being white until I started using this toothpaste. I think the salt acts like a light abrasive which gets the teeth much cleaner. The essential oils do burn a little, and there were a few times when my gums were stinging a bit. But I'm used to it now and it only bothers me if I get it on my lips, which doesn't happen so often, and even then it's not something I can't handle, especially since I'm gonna be washing it off in a minute anyways. I absolutely live this product, tbh, and am so happy to have found it! My teeth look and feel healthier, and this jar will last me a very long time, especially since I only use a tiny bit when brushing. As an aside, after about a month of using this product (and brushing with it 2x a day), one day last week I thought about how I still have a bottle of the ACT mouthwash that I never use and maybe I should get back into the habit of using. So after flossing and brushing, I rinsed with the ACT mouthwash, and aside for the taste being too sweet (and mine was the mint flavor too) I felt like it kind of just coated my teeth with blue #40 and it didn't leave the fresh after taste in my mouth the way it used to. I really regretted using it, because brushing with this toothpaste left my mouth feeling clean and fresh, while using the ACT mouthwash left me feeling like my mouth wasn't happy that I used it. After doing a little research, I found that most mouthwashes are pretty ineffective as it is, and that a lot of them upset the balance of flora in the mouth. So not gonna be using any of that again any time soon.

This toothpaste has done wonders for my mouth. It not only freshens my breath longer, it whitens my teeth and makes them stronger. I am a lifetime customer of Uncle Harry.

November/23: I love this toothpaste. It has been wonderful for my teeth. I’ve seen marked improvement since I began using it in March of this year. I order it about every two months. I was SHOCKED just now to see the price increase. On September 22, 2023 I paid $27 and now the current price is $46???? Are you kidding me? This is absolutely ridiculous. Do not buy this product at this price. Update as of October 6/24: price is back down to a more reasonable amount of $22 so I’ve changed my rating to 4/5…one star removed only because of the shifting price. Still love the product and use it daily.
