 The lack of "suds" is different than most other toothpastes ...

The lack of "suds" is different than most other toothpastes, but it is not unpleasant. It does seem to be helping with a recurring canker sore problem.

I've enjoyed this product since it's SLS-free. I had recurring canker sores and read about what triggered them. It's not 100% clear, but I think a Norwegian study is exactly on point and easy to see how SLS is a culprit even though it was a small study:
Abstract:
Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), a synthetic detergent commonly used in dentifrices, is an effective denaturant. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of SLS in patients with recurrent aphthous ulcers (RAU). Ten patients with multiple minor RAU participated in the study. The mean incidence of RAU was 17.8 during a 3-month period before the study. The patients used a dentifrice containing 1.2% SLS for a test period of 3 months followed by a dentifrice without SLS for the same time period. The results showed a statistically significant decrease in the number of aphthous ulcers from 14.3 after using the SLS-containing dentifrice to 5.1 ulcers after brushing with the SLS-free dentifrice (p < 0.05). It is suggested that the denaturing effect of SLS on the oral mucin layer, with exposure of the underlying epithelium, induces an increased incidence of RAU.

Canker Sore Problems, use an SLS free toothpaste.
|

I've been using Tom's Clean and Gentle for a number of years. As other Amazon uses have indicated, if you have Canker Sores, you need to be using a SLS free toothpaste. They are hard to come by in the Brick and Mortar stores.
I bit more pricey than normal toothpaste, but for someone who used to have multiple Canker Sores most of the time, the respite is well worth the price.
Happy Brushing!
