We can highlight all the advantages that Gumpearls toothpaste tablets are free of surfactants and contribute to more sustainable consumption. But already at the start of Gumpearls' journey, there was a clear focus on vegan toothpaste tablets, free of palm oil. We care about the individual, regardless of whether the individual is a human, pet or marine animal. That's why our products are vegan and cruelty free. Let's talk more about what that means.
Unfortunately, it is still common for toothpaste products to contain ingredients and additives of animal origin. Such as animal by-products. In some countries, the products are also tested on animals. However, it has been prohibited in the EU to test cosmetic products on animals since 2013, and prohibited to sell such products since 2019.
Replacing animal products with, for example, coconut oil, peppermint oil, xylitol and natural flavorings does not affect the effectiveness of the toothpaste. Quite the opposite, as vegan products generally also avoid chemicals and preservatives that can be harmful to the body.
You will recognize this with us at Gumpearl. Our toothpaste tablets are free from surfactants and SLS substances, palm oil, alcohol and other unnecessary additives.
Frequently Asked Questions About Vegan Toothpaste Products
Let's answer some of the most common questions and concerns about vegan dental products.
What distinguishes a vegan toothpaste product from a "regular" one?
The simple difference is that the vegan toothpaste product does not contain any animal substances and is usually made from natural or non-toxic ingredients.
Are vegan toothpaste products effective at cleaning teeth?
Vegan toothpaste products can generally be as effective as regular toothpaste products in cleaning and strengthening teeth and gums.
When it comes to Gumpearl toothpaste tablets, it goes without saying. Our toothpaste tablets have been freed from unnecessary additives (such as SLS, palm oil and animal products) and instead we have focused on the ingredients that directly make a difference to your oral health. They contain fluoride and are therefore recommended by the Swedish Dental Association. Xylitol also helps inhibit the growth of bacteria in the mouth and helps protect the tooth against caries, reduce plaque formation and strengthen enamel. It can also help give the toothpaste a sweet taste without increasing the risk of caries and other dental problems.
Today, there is a wide selection of vegan cosmetic and health products on the Swedish market. It is only natural that we offer a vegan and cruelty-free alternative to traditional toothpaste.
By choosing vegan toothpaste products, you also contribute to a reduced carbon footprint and more sustainable consumption. The difference in your dental care routine is minimal, but the difference to the environment and wildlife is enormous.
