There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice 🍉.

I just started using David’s toothpaste as I got a really bizarre and difficult to diagnose gum reaction that may be due to SLS or flavoring sensitivity. I really like it as it has a subtle flavor, comes in recyclable metal tubes, and is made in the US (California I believe). It’s fluoride free but uses nano hydroxyapatite which is shown in some studies to be more effective at enamel repair than fluoride compounds. I still use a fluorinated mouthwash and our water is fluorinated (I’m clearly not an anti fluoride person at all). The toothpaste itself works well, my teeth feel clean after brushing. My only real complaints are that it’s a little pricy (though now that I have a flavor I like I can order in bulk and save on shipping) and that I have to use more than my SLS containing toothpaste to have enough to really brush fully (but that’s true of any SLS free choice).
