Nowadays, there is a stronger emphasis on promoting your overall well-being through natural healing to foster your general health. However, this is not just limited to medical treatments. Many have come to prefer holistic dentistry due its philosophy on providing alternative treatments while viewing oral and overall health intertwined instead of in two separate categories. In addition to dental services, this also involves choosing various oral hygiene products to keep your smile healthy. Among one of the most common products that you use to promote your dental health is toothpaste. Now, you can choose a fluoride-free toothpaste to protect your teeth and gums from damage without having to worry about any adverse effects.
