Yeah, it's a spin-off name of the famous John Wayne movie--True Grit. That John Wayne sure had grit! He was brave, passionate and motivated to catch a criminal. I don't know about you, but I like a toothpaste that does the same thing...
SORT OF...
a toothpaste that is brave, passionate and motivated to catch a germ.
(without all the chemicals that most toothpastes are laden with)

I want it to be brave to get inside my germ-laden mouth,
passionate about fighting germs in there, and motivated to ridding my teeth, tongue and gums of them!
And, I like my toothpaste to have grit--the kind that cleans really well. My husband says "you mean to tell me I'm cleaning my teeth with dirt?"
Yep! {grin}

Honestly, since I've been using this my teeth and mouth have never felt cleaner.
True Tooth Grit
1 cup Bentonite Clay
1 cup Baking Soda
2 Splenda packets-optional
2 teaspoons kosher salt
4 drops Wintergreen essential oil
4 drops Clove Bud essential oil
4 drops Cinnamon Bark essential oil
water
Bentonite Clay--neutralizes acid, removes bacteria filled organic matter, eliminates toxins from metals in your mouth, and promotes healthy gums
Baking Soda--neutralizes stains and odors, polishes and whitens
Splenda--optional for flavoring
Kosher Salt--heals sores or irritations in the mouth
Wintergreen EO--analgesic, antiseptic,
Clove Bud EO--analgesic, antibacterial, anti-infectious, antiseptic
Cinnamon Bark EO--antibacterial, antiseptic and astringent
Mix all ingredients except for the water. Once blended well, add water until it's the consistency you like. Fills six 4 oz. canning jars. I use a plastic canning lid on these because the regular lids will definitely rust.
Some do not like the idea of dipping their toothbrush into a jar of toothpaste due to the germ factor. Well, we just keep a small jar full of water with a few drops of Shield in it. We clean our toothbrush with it after each use...that keeps it clean for dipping in the jar of True Tooth Grit. Just dip only once and give each family member their own jar!
