Directions:

1. Put the coconut oil in a container with hot water. This process would take 15 to 20 minutes depending on the room temperature.
2. Place all the remaining ingredients together with the coconut oil. Stir them together until completely blended.
3. When done, it’s highly suggested to put the finished product in a lidded glass container.

Helpful Tips:

1.  You can add more baking soda to make the paste firmer. During winter, you can opt to add less soda so it’ll be easier to dispense from the container.
2. Flavored essential oils do not really affect the taste of toothpaste. However, they provide a refreshing aftertaste.
3. Add stevia as a sweetener to have that hind of sweetness.
4. Tea tree oil, peppermint oils, and lemongrass oil are just some of the essential oils you can add to make an anti-bacterial toothpaste.
