How to choose the best toothpaste for you

Keeping your teeth healthy is an important way to guarantee that you have a beautiful smile for life.

By choosing natural toothpaste and mouthwash you won’t be putting any synthetic chemicals such as SLS’s, artificial colours and flavours, bleaches, synthetics preservatives and microplastics in your mouth.

And you can feel good knowing your teeth and gums are clean and healthy without swallowing any hidden nasties.

Weleda toothpastes and oral care products are carefully formulated with pure plant extracts and mineral substances and care for teeth and gums effectively and gently. Natural essential oils give your mouth a fresh natural feeling.

They help maintain the healthy balance of your teeth, gums and mouth and are 100% certified natural care. Formulated without water-soluble fluoride because we respect the choice of our customers.*

Need some help finding the right toothpaste for you? We’ve put together a guide.

*Please discuss with your doctor or dentist the options for maintaining adequate fluoride supply.

It is carefully formulated to avoid substances that may be harmful if swallowed. Children love the pleasant taste and smooth gel texture.

Daily breath & mouth freshness

Ratanhia Mouthwash

Concentrated natural power for fresh breath and healthy gums. A mouth that’s out of balance means irritated gums and a nasty taste.

Natural essential oils of sage, clove and peppermint deliver freshness and support the anti-irritating properties of the formula.

Natural toothpastes are better for the environment

Because our oral care contains only natural ingredients and omits potentially harmful ones, natural toothpaste is not only kinder to you but also to the environment, both in the manufacturing and disposal.

Using natural toothpaste cuts down on pollutants such as microplastics or detergents, which would otherwise end up in our waterways.
