Has Anyone Tried Those New Enamel Building Toothpastes?

[Guest digmom1014]

I am so new to this, I really would have a hard time deciphering a toothpaste label. I could really use something to build-up my enamel on my 43 yr. old teeth. I have the usual soft spots, fissures and chips. I have seen the commercial where the dentist shines a black light behind this woman's teeth and they are practically clear!

Anyone?!

Here is a review of one of them by somebody who tried it.

This one looks a little more promising, however, and may be worth trying.

I've been reading how teeth are porous, and how toothpastes with glycerin in them coat the teeth, disallowing them to breath. I now use tooth soap, which is soap made from olive oil. It's pretty weird - foamy. I also use Uncle Harry's toothpaste, which is just clay and minerals, and maybe some silver for antibacterial. I also swish with sesame oil with other oils every day (minty oils).

I haven't been doing it long enough to vouch ... but my tooth sensitivity is gone.

They also suggest eating a head of romaine lettuce every day, to remineralize. I suppose any good mineralizing food would do (greens, etc.)

Dr. Ben's newsletter is a place to read up on the tooth soap if you're interested. Google dr. ben?

Thanks-I just don't want my teeth any worse than the are. Pretty much all the back teeth are fake anyway-had them almost my whole life!
