Posted by on · 1 Comment

Mercury is one of the most dangerous substances in the world. Many people do not know that the silver “amalgam” dental fillings in their mouth actually contains about 50% mercury. The fact that the dental fillings contain high levels of mercury is denied by the American Dental Association (ADA) is not only a cause of serious concern but also creates fear in the minds of people who already have the filling in their mouth.

Many researchers have proved that the fillings lose the mercury content over time. One researcher had the fillings of a patient removed to see the amount of mercury in it.

With the public awareness about the dangers of fluoride growing rapidly, many people are wondering where they can buy fluoride free toothpaste, and what toothpaste brands offer no fluoride toothpaste without Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS). Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (or Sodium Lauryth Sulphate (SLES) is a harsh chemical commonly found in toothpaste, shampoos, conditioners, bubble bath, body washes, shaving cream, cosmetics, mouthwash, laundry detergents, engine degreasers, garage floor cleaners etc, used by industry as a powerful degreaser and foaming agent.

Although Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) originates from coconuts, the chemical is anything but natural. SLS is an irritant and is an ester of Sulphuric acid, associated with increased aphthous ulcers (canker sores) due to the denaturing effect and irritation of the oral mucosa, as well as eczema. If you are prone to getting canker sores in your mouth, or experience allergic reactions to SLS products on your skin, switch to products and toothpaste without SLS and fluoride in them.
