MMMMMM....smooth, clean teeth :)
Having been turned on to the anti-inflammatory properties of Neem I went looking for a natural toothpaste containing it.<br />This item caught my eye because I still recall the superior cleaning of baking soda/salt tooth powder back in the day.<br /><br /> I also recalled the gaggifying taste of that cleaning duo.  Thankfully this tooth powder has all the gentle scrubbing properties and tastes a million times better.<br /><br />It is cinnamon flavored.  And not that sickly, chemical cinnamon you experience in most mainstream toothpastes.  Instead it tastes like there is just enough honest- to- goodness cinnamon in it to flavor it without making it &#34;hot&#34;.<br /><br />Your teeth feel smooth and look whiter after just one use.  After a few uses any little areas on my gums that had looked inflamed were totally healed.<br /><br />Now for the cons:<br /><br />It did have a tendency to make my mouth feel a little dry after using no matter how well I rinsed.  To be expected with a natural astringent like Neem I suppose.<br /><br />I was a little worried that the same thing that made it whiten immediately might make it a bit too abrasive for my horrifyingly expensive ,and therefore pampered, dental crowns.  I have solved this by using this powder sparingly on those teeth.<br /><br />I didn't love the bottle this came in.  Instructions state to wet your brush and sprinkle the powder on the brush.  I found that when you do that all the powder has a tendency to fall between and to remain at the bottom of the bristles.  To fix this I put a portion of the powder in my dry hand and dipped my damp brush into the powder and that placed the powder on top of the bristles.  At least until I hit the on switch on my electric toothbrush!<br /><br />All in all I am very happy with this product and will be reordering it...soon since my husband keeps swiping it!
