JOJOBA OIL (WAX)
Is naturally grown in parts of Southern Arizona, Southern California, and Northwestern Mexico. Jojoba oil is the liquid produced in the seed of the Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba) plant.

PEPPERMINT OIL
Is made from the essential oils of peppermint leaves. It is the organic flavoring we use for the minty fresh taste of White Birch Toothpaste.

 CALCIUM PEROXIDE
Is derived from Calcium Salts. Calcium peroxide is a two system whitening ingredient in White Birch Toothpaste. It is almost insoluble in water and can serve as a superior gentle abrasive and as an oxidant to enhance the whiteness of teeth. As calcium peroxide breaks down in the saliva the remaining calcium salts can be used as a source of calcium for teeth remineralization.

 HYDRATED SILICA
It is naturally derived from Silica, an abundant compound found in the earths surface. Hydrated silica is used to thicken our toothpaste and as a gentle abrasive to clean the teeth.

GLYCERIN
Is primarily used in our toothpaste as a moistener (humectant). Glycerin is an odorless, colorless, thick liquid that is sweet-tasting, and non-toxic. It gives our toothpaste body and prevents it from drying out. Our particular glycerin is vegetable glycerin. It creates a texture to White Birch that is pleasant tasting and feeling. It is Kosher as well!

IRISH MOSS

SODIUM COCO SULPHATE
Is the "foaming agent" we use in White Birch that removes debris and particles from the teeth. It is a surfactant that is derived from coconut oil.

TITANIUM DIOXIDE
Is a naturally occurring mineral-based white pigment that provides our toothpaste with its rich color. White Birch is a natural product that does not have any synthetic dye.
