Toothpowder is a great alternative to using a Toothpaste.
Toothpowder harnesses the fantastic qualities of NZ kelp and sweet natural spices to create this great toothpowder - a natural alternative to whitening toothpaste, with the added benefit of re-mineralising properties to help rebuild your teeth and reduce sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures. This variety has been very popular with men and makes an ideal gift.
The Toothpowder helps your mouth to find its balance again by supporting its natural protection and cleaning processes. Replenishing lost minerals in the teeth and maintaining healthy gums. The Mineralising Toothpowder has a distinct aniseed flavour, with a more subtle underlying sweetness of cinnamon, cardamom and cloves. After using, your teeth will look and feel incredibly clean and polished throughout the day.

A bit about Toothpaste/power:
Maxwell & McIntyre Ltd use no Harmful Chemicals or Foaming Agents in their products.
Most commercial toothpaste contain harmful and toxic ingredients, such as titanium dioxide, FDC, Blue Dye, sodium lauryl sulfate, and sodium fluoride. These ingredients can also be found in toothpaste that is labelled “all natural”.
These chemicals are not only harmful to your delicate tooth enamel, they also affect your overall health! Glycerin is another ingredient to be cautious of as it can inhibit remineralization of teeth.
Conventional toothpaste such as Colgate Total contains an antibacterial chemical called triclosan, which has been linked to concerns over antibiotic resistance and endocrine disruption.
Many “NATURAL” toothpastes contain surfactants like sodium laurel sulfate, sodium laureth sulfate (SLS), or sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES). Surfactants are chemicals responsible for the foaming action of the toothpaste, but they also interfere with the functioning of your taste buds by breaking up the phospholipids on your tongue.
This enhances bitter tastes and is thought to be the reason why everything tastes so bad right after you’ve brushed your teeth. This may also be part of why coconut oil works so well for oral hygiene, as it helps maintain a more natural balance of lipids on your tongue, while still having potent antibacterial properties.
Why we have chosen this product:
Its alright
This powder is okay, but I don't think it will help with long term tooth care just on its own. After a week of using this, my hubby believes he has tarter built up. I don't mind it, but I'm not a fan of any licorice taste, so I knew when I ordered it the ainse seed would put me off. I still use it occasionally, but personally I like a nice foamy toothwash that makes your mouth tingle. This product makes your teeth feel clean, but there is no foam or froth.
Interesting
It has been weird using this as it is not much like traditional toothpaste. The taste is very strong and I wish there was a mint one instead. There seems to be what feels like bits of wood in there which feels weird in your teeth. Not sure how I feel about this product just yet. Well made though and I think my dislikes are purely personal.
Great Alternative
I am enjoying this toothpowder for it's taste and the way it seems to work. Great knowing that all ingredients are natural
Quite different but good
I like this powder but it takes a bit of getting used to. I don't mind that it doesn't foam but I'm not so keen on the little bits it leaves behind and you really need to rinse at the end even tho it recommends little rinsing. I use this at night mostly. Nice taste as it is not too strong. I feel good about not using a tube too and will re-use the jar later
