Why We Reject Hydrofluorosilicic Acid

The fluoride debate has been framed incorrectly. Proponents point to naturally occurring calcium fluoride in groundwater and claim safety. But that is not what goes into your toothpaste.

Industrial fluoride is hydrofluorosilicic acid—a byproduct of phosphate fertilizer manufacturing. It is not purified. It is not pharmaceutical grade. It is industrial waste that would cost companies millions to dispose of properly, so they sell it to municipal water facilities and toothpaste manufacturers instead.

Your teeth do not need fluoride to remineralize. They need a clean oral environment, proper pH balance, and bioavailable minerals like calcium and silica. Our ancestors maintained perfect teeth without fluoride tablets.

We choose calcium carbonate and diatomaceous earth because they provide mechanical cleaning and mineral delivery without systemic toxicity. The choice is yours, but make it an informed one.

Why We Only Make 20 Jars Per Week

Most "artisanal" brands scale until they are no longer artisanal. They outsource to co-packers. They add preservatives to extend shelf life. They compromise.

We will not.

Twenty jars per week allows us to inspect every batch personally. To ensure the diatomaceous earth is food-grade and not the pool-filter variety. To verify that the sea salt is truly unrefined and still contains the 84 trace minerals your mouth requires.

This is a side effect of sovereignty. We are not trying to dominate the market. We are trying to serve those who care about what goes into their bodies. That requires saying no to growth.

If you want mass-produced, buy Crest. If you want competence, wait for our next batch.

The Silica Secret: Diatomaceous Earth

Diatoms are microscopic algae that lived millions of years ago. When they died, their silica skeletons settled to the bottom of ancient lakes and oceans, creating deposits of what we now call diatomaceous earth.

Under a microscope, DE looks like tiny glass shards—porous, sharp, and negatively charged. This gives it three unique properties for oral care:

1. Mechanical Abrasion: The sharp edges scrub plaque and tartar without damaging enamel, unlike harsh chemical surfactants.

2. Detoxification: The negative charge attracts positively charged toxins, heavy metals, and bacteria, binding them for removal.

3. Mineral Delivery: Silica is essential for collagen synthesis. Your gums are collagen. Strong gums hold teeth in place.

We source our DE from freshwater deposits in the American Southwest, ensuring food-grade purity without contaminants.
