    I'm told that fluoride toothpaste contains 1500 as much fluoride as water. So lately I've been using less and less toothpaste. Now I'm considering just not using toothpaste at all. By this point I'm convinced it doesn't do anything, I was more or less using it simply to mask the taste of brushing w/o toothpaste.

    Wondering, though, if I should look into alternatives. Up till now I was sticking to the major brands. (Crest and Colgate) There are organic / "all natural" toothpaste brands, maybe I should look into those. I see toothpaste that advertises itself as fluoride-free. And, charcoal toothpaste? It's toothpaste that's literally black. Looks interesting..

      Editing … Because I assume that it's absorbed through the gums. (Not to mention you will invariably swallow some of it, even if you rinse your mouth thoroughly it will still be there in trace amounts. And at 1500 times concentration, any amount is a full freight load.)

      Editing … I did think about flouride poisoning once when I read about it online. But then I saw real data on Yorkshire water and dismissed it. Being online sometimes isn't the best thing, but it is always the cure if you want it to be
