The whole point of using soap is to avoid the ingredient glycerin which sticks to your teeth and can take up to 3 days to remove. Food particles, bacteria, and plaque get trapped under layers of glycerin on your teeth. This is why it was recommended to use a soap that doesn't have glycerin in it to brush your teeth with. Personally I use Chandrika Ayervedic Soap http://www.chandrikasoaps.com/ChandV01/home/ because I can buy it at Sprouts and Market Place for $1 a bar and it only has organic ingredients (main ingredient is coconut oil) and has no glycerin. I've been using it for over 2 years now (to wash my body, shave my face, and brush my teeth). Its a great time saver to do all those things in the shower. Its a great money saver to do all those things with 1 product. When I went to the dentist for teeth cleaning last month (first time in 3 years) the dentist was amazed at how clean my teeth were and how healthy my gums were and told me to keep doing what I was doing (he wouldn't have said that had he known I only brush my teeth once a day). Of course I didn't tell him the other secret that keeps my teeth clean (no, not EIS). David

I had one purchased toothsoap, and the ingredients were pretty much the same as a healthy organic bar of soap. Some even use this, a bar of soap, it is just to find one that has a flavor that you can handle. The toothsoap I had purchased was peppermint, I just can't the remember the ingredients except for essential oils and olive oil.

Also, what type of soap is used? Can it be made at home? I just read some info from a guy named Gerard F. Judd. Not sure what to make of it all at this time. -Ken Bagwell Be smarter than spam.
