Does it work as well as toothpaste or is there some other way to skip the disposable toothpaste tubes? I think some places recycle the traditional "tubes"

I tried toothpaste powder. It tasted great, but I could never get enough of it to stick to the toothbrush. I looked into tablets, but they seemed super expensive. I’m honestly surprised the major brands haven’t started making them. Seems like they have a huge profit margin.

Yikes, what a rip-off. Seems cheaper to just go back to 1950 and pick up some tooth powder, which also sounds a lot easier to use.

I never cared for the tablets I tried. Dirt tooth powder has been my go to for years now.
