All the Best Things for Your Teeth On Sale Right Now
In this article
As I’ve said before about household essentials, it’s important to look for the boring stuff in the sales section. That includes dental care: toothbrushes, floss, mouthwash, and the like. Whether you’re upgrading to a water flosser or adding a tongue scraper to your routine, you may as well snag it discounted. Because there is so much to sift through, I’ve gone through and found actually good deals out there. Many of the items below are things we’ve written about before and have been recommended by dentists — like our favorite electric toothbrushes and mouthwashes — plus a couple of dental-care items worth keeping in your medicine cabinet.
Because prices and stock will likely fluctuate, I’ll be updating this frequently with the latest info and adding new stuff as it pops up. I recommend you bookmark it, so you can have it handy next time you’re running low.

This fluoride- and SLS-free GuruNanda toothpaste contains hydroxyapatite, which is biocompatible with our teeth and can rebuild enamel from within (versus fluoride, which works to strengthen the enamel on the outside). Cosmetic dentist Dr. Anjali Rajpal also recommends GuruNanda’s hydroxyapatite formula because it contains neem, an Ayurvedic ingredient that’s said to be antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal.

SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) is used in many toothpastes because it makes them foamy, but it can also cause canker sores and irritation in some patients, and increase sensitivity. This kids’ toothpaste from Hello is SLS-free but still contains fluoride, so you get all the cleaning and the tooth-strengthening benefits with none of the potential side effects.
