- 25 g. coconut oil
- 1 tbsp. baking powder
- 1 tbsp. sea salt
- 1 tbsp. calcium magnesium powder (dolomite)
- 1 tbsp. xylit
- 12-15 drops peppermint essential oil
- Melt coconut oil heating it a bit. It melts over 26 °C.
- Mix all powdery ingredients (baking powder, sea salt, dolomite and xylit) in a separate cup.
- Put the powder-mix into coconut oil and stir until it gets quite homogeneous.
- Lastly put 12 to 15 drops of peppermint essential oil into the mix.
- Stir continuously but slowly until it gets a pasty texture. It can take 5-10 minutes depending on the room temperature.
- Put the paste in a closed container and you are good to go.
- Scratch the paste with your toothbrush and brush your teeth.
- Brush your teeth twice a day, mornings and evenings before going to bed.
- If it is a warm day, coconut oil will be fluid and the other ingredients can precipitate. If so, you should stir it a bit to make it homogeneous again.
- If it is a cold day, it will be very hard, then you need to scratch it a bit more than usual.
