I switched to SLS-free toothpaste years ago, after a dental hygenist (correctly) suggested this might help with my chronic mouth ulcers. I now have 3 young DSs have had the occasional ulcer, and I'd prefer them to avoid the stuff too. The problem is that I do think some fluoride is a good idea.
Toothpaste manufacturers, however, seem to disagree, and assume that no SLS should also mean no fluoride. This is bloody annoying. My boys aren't keen on strong, minty flavours, so adult toothpastes have proved to be a no-go. The only toothpaste I've ever found that they liked was that Tom's of Maine strawberry one, but despite its natural-and-healthy image, that too has SLSs. Has anyone found a product that fits this description? Seems odd that with the dozens/hundreds of sodding products clogging the shelves, that not one fits this fairly basic model...
