So, I've been using a new fluoride-free toothpaste recently (for about a week now). It's Tom's of Maine Propolis & Myrrh toothpaste. It should be noted that the following words are written on the package in no particular order: fennel, fluoride-free, natural, antiplaque, fresh breath, no artificial dyes or sweeteners. The barcode is 077326830741. The expiration date is 01/20. It came from the Grocery Outlet.
Anyway, one of my first observations was that fennel was a rather significant ingredient for not being in the title. You can definitely taste it.
It seems to be an effective toothpaste, and my teeth seem to feel better using it.
I get the impression that despite not being overtly mentioned in the ingredient list that there's possibly a small amount of mint in the natural flavor, due to the familiar tingle I feel when I use it. However, it's not as minty as most toothpaste if so.
It's a thinner (as in more fluid) toothpaste than others I've used. That's fine.
I'm not sure what myrrh and propolis taste like, but something in this toothpaste (not the fennel) gives me the willies like cloves used to do. I mean, it makes me want to shudder all over and vomit or something. Yes, cloves did that to me, too, but they seem tolerable now. It should be noted that lots of people love cloves. I imagine lots of people might similarly love the taste/smell/feel of this toothpaste. I love the fennel taste and smell, but there's something else that I don't love, yet. Maybe it's an acquired taste/smell.
So, I have mixed feelings about this toothpaste. It works and seems to be effective, especially for a fluoride-free toothpaste, but something in it disturbs me (or my sense of taste/smell). I should probably find out what myrrh and propolis taste/smell like.
