Good News: Your Regular Toothpaste Isn't the Only Game in Town

If someone told you that your regular toothpaste isn't the only game in town, you might respond with something like, "I know. There are other brands I could try." That you could. But we have another option. Rather than switching to a different brand of toothpaste, why not switch to a whole new format: toothpaste tablets?

Toothpaste tablets are a viable and sustainable alternative to traditional toothpaste. They work as advertised. You don't lose any of the benefits your current toothpaste offers, but you do gain some things traditional toothpaste is decidedly lacking.

How They Compare

Before getting to what you gain from toothpaste tablets, let us look at how the two formats compare in terms of day-to-day use. Remember, you won't miss out on any of the benefits of traditional toothpaste by switching to EcoFam toothpaste tablets.

1. Active Ingredients

Both traditional toothpaste and toothpaste tablets contain active ingredients designed to fight cavities, remineralize teeth, kill germs, and more. Your traditional toothpaste is likely to contain fluoride as a remineralizing and strengthening agent. Our toothpaste tablets contain hydroxyapatite instead. It does as good a job with none of fluoride's questionable effects.

2. Additives

By their nature, traditional toothpastes need to flow freely from the tubes that contain them. They also need to have an exceptional shelf life to account for production scales and logistics. So traditional toothpastes tend to have preservatives. Many also contain SLS and microplastics.

You get none of that with a typical toothpaste tablet. EcoFam toothpaste tablets contain no preservatives, harsh chemicals, or SLS. Because we don't package in plastic, you do not have microplastic contamination to worry about.

3. Product Texture

You have been using traditional tube toothpaste your whole life. You are familiar with its texture. And you're also familiar with the fact that it gets quite foamy once you start brushing your teeth. Toothpaste tablets are different.

When you first put a toothpaste tablet in your mouth and chew, it mixes with your saliva to create a paste. Brushing generates more saliva, which continues to mix with the paste. Here's the thing: while you do get some foam, toothpaste tablets don't generate nearly as much as traditional toothpaste. But don't worry. Less foam has no impact on a tablet's ability to clean your teeth.

And Now, the Extras

Now that you know how toothpaste tablets compare with traditional toothpaste, you're probably wondering about the extras that come with EcoFam tablets. Let's talk about them.

For starters, you get a teeth-cleaning and mouth-freshening product made with premium ingredients and no harsh chemicals. Second, you get a product packaged in reusable and recyclable materials. That is important if you believe in sustainability.

EcoFam toothpaste tablets also pack more teeth-cleaning power in a single package, meaning you produce less waste by preferring them over traditional toothpaste in a tube. The empty tube is a piece of useless plastic that goes in the trash can. The EcoFam jar can be repurposed in a lot of different ways. If you do choose to recycle it, that's good too.

Finally, EcoFam toothpaste tablets represent a convenient way to clean your teeth without carrying a tube around. Just carry a few tablets in your pocket or bag. They make for much easier air travel because they don't create problems during TSA inspections.

The Best of Everything

As we see it, you get the best of everything with toothpaste tablets. The truth is that your regular toothpaste isn't the only game town. Toothpaste tablets are another option, and we think EcoFam tablets are one of your top choices.
