Toothpaste

I have sort of a backwards question, what gluten-free toothpaste does everyone on this board use, now i'm wondering if i'm stupid and i've been glutening myself with toothpaste (i'm calling the company!), I'm also the genius who about five months after going gluten-free sent out about 100 christmas cards and licked all the envelopes (that had gluten).....so, now i hope i'm doing the right hting!

I use Crest. I believe all flavors are gluten free.

I'm kind of confused about toothpaste. I've read to watch for hidden gluten in toothpastes, and after searching the net, Tom's of Maine was the only one that listed some of their toothpastes as gluten free. Now I buy one of the gluten free Tom's toothpastes. But in just reading labels of easier to find, cheaper toothpastes, I can't see anything that would indicate gluten in any of them. But I'm afraid to try any that aren't labeled gluten free.

Can somebody list which toothpastes DO contain gluten? I'd like to buy cheaper toothpaste, if I could.

I just use baking soda mixed with some water to make a paste. Works great and I know exactly what's in it too. I suppose you could add some mint flavoring or something, but I'm not picky enough about the taste to bother with all that. I only need it to do the job, which it does very well, and it's about as cheap as you can get for toothpaste.

I go between Crest and Arm and Hammer. Both work well. I just use them for two different reasons. I am goofy though :)

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.

      Yep, you've got celiac disease. That is a high score. In the U.K. you could have been diagnosed on the TTG-IGA score alone and not needed an endoscopy/biopsy. But I realize your physicians were not looking for celiac disease in the first place. But it also makes me wonder how much of your bowel issues are tied to celiac disease whose onset may actually have been years ago. Taking years to get a celiac diagnosis after onset is typical because the symptoms mimic so many other bowel diseases and many of us have "silent" celiac for years, meaning we have no or few symptoms until damage the small bowel lining becomes quite advanced and other symptoms, e.g. iron deficiency anemia, start showing up.
