469705643_4fc52bce20_b.jpg

Most people are always on the hunt for green food or ecologically friendly cars to save money, but there are some people who are truly passionate about Earth enough to want to be as respectful as they can be. Being respectful to nature does not always have to be a sacrifice to the wallet either. You can even promote environmental values in things like dental products.

Below are five economically and ecologically friendly products for dental hygiene. Some of them have recycled packaging, others use organic ingredients, and others are biodegradable upon throwing them away, but all of them can help move along green values while being high-quality products.

 

Dr. Ken's Maximum Care Spearmint Cool

As far as an environmental friendly toothpaste goes, this is the one closest to mainstream in terms of taste and packaging, and it was developed by a dentist with the promise to clean as well as any mainstream product. The Environmental Working Group were not necessarily thrilled with it because of the sodium fluoride, but the taste is amazing, and it does get teeth clean. The most interesting ingredients in Dr. Ken's concoction are green tea extract and papaya. This is the kind of toothpaste to help convert people skeptical of the taste and effectiveness of green dental products.

 

Desert Essence Tea Tree Oil Mouthwash

There are only natural flavors in this mouthwash. It is flavored with real spearmint and organic tea tree leaf. Next, the great flavor is nutritionally fortified with Vitamin C and witch hazel. Also, this product can proudly say it is completely vegan and was never tested on animals. Some of the many ingredients include sugar alcohol, parabens and much more. Finally, it is an effective product, animal cruelty-free and is completely made from renewable resources.

 

Eco-dent GentleFloss

This floss takes being green and organic very seriously. It is completely vegan. The floss is 100% vegetable wax—not a bit of beeswax has been used. What makes this a truly green product is the box. The box is plastic free (it’s made of rice) and the paper packing is completely ready to recycle. These are just a few details on a fully environmental friendly product.

 

Between! Dental Gum

This all-natural gum is an ideal way to freshen breath, clean teeth and do both while remaining mobile. The ingredients are simple, and the gum is made simply with baking soda, antioxidants and minerals. The flavor added to the gum is natural too, and it depends on what flavor is selected. It is available in cinnamon, mint and wintergreen, and it is sugar-free too. It is dye- and fake-color free on top of everything else. There are so many other wonderful, natural ingredients in this gum.

 

Monte Bianco Natural Toothbrush

Eco-Dent is the brand responsible for this toothbrush, and the company has an amazing reputation for releasing green and economically friendly products. The bristles are recycled, and the brush comes with a unique, purpose serving gimmick. Your toothbrush should be replaced every three months according to dentistry.com, and the Monte Bianco makes this task easy by having an easily removable, replaceable head.

 

The five products above are affordable and cost-effective, and provide incredible health benefits, all while being very friendly to the environment. It is important to combine positive financial responsibility and the responsibility to our planet. Visit a dentist like Family First Dentistry LLC if you have any questions about the product you’re using.
