Earthpaste
Earthpaste is a range of natural oral care products from the American brand Redmond. Instead of water and foaming agents, it uses bentonite clay from the Sundance Sea deposit in Utah as its base, a source protected from contamination for millions of years. The brand’s philosophy follows the principle of “Less is More” – Earthpaste has such a clean formula that it is safe even if accidentally swallowed.
Unlike conventional toothpastes, Earthpaste contains no glycerine or fluoride. The glycerine is left out deliberately so it does not form a film on the teeth that may interfere with the natural remineralisation of enamel. Instead of chemical foaming agents (SLS), the paste relies on the clay’s natural negative charge, which acts like a magnet – attracting impurities and pathogens without irritating the gums.
Most popular Earthpaste products:
- Peppermint with activated charcoal: A variant that combines the icy freshness of mint with the whitening effect of black charcoal for a naturally lighter tooth shade.
- Wintergreen with nano silver: A very popular variant with wintergreen essential oil, known for its strong disinfecting effect and distinctive freshness.
- Lemon Twist: A gentle citrus flavour without menthol or tea tree that, thanks to its safety and pleasant taste, works well for kids too.
- Spearmint (Unsweetened): A special xylitol-free version for those who prefer a purely herbal taste and greater safety around pets.
- Earthpowder®: A powdered alternative well suited to travel, containing the same mineral ingredients as the paste, but in a highly concentrated dry form.

The Earthpaste brand began as a standalone product line within the Utah-based family company Redmond, whose roots go back to 1958. The goal was to create a toothpaste made only from clean ingredients that are safe even if accidentally swallowed. This approach comes from the Bosshardt family tradition, which built its business on integrity and on using natural ingredients with as little processing as possible.
Earthpaste toothpastes are based on bentonite clay from a unique underground deposit that is the remnant of the prehistoric Sundance Sea. Because this source lay isolated under a layer of volcanic ash for millions of years, it remained untouched by modern pollutants. The “Nature Has it Right” philosophy is reflected here in a formula that does not need artificial foaming agents, colourings or synthetic preservatives to do its job.
About the Earthpaste range
Earthpaste does not add glycerine or fluoride to its toothpastes. The absence of glycerine matters because this substance can form a film on the teeth that limits the natural contact between enamel and saliva and may therefore reduce its effect on the tooth surface. Instead of chemical foaming agents (SLS), the paste relies on the physical properties of clay, which carries a natural negative electric charge and can therefore bind impurities and bacteria without disturbing the oral microflora.
Oral care with a simple formula
Thanks to the geological purity of the clay used and Real Salt®, Earthpaste toothpastes are popular with people who prefer products with a simple formula. They are a good choice for families with kids, where accidental swallowing of toothpaste is less of a concern, and for people who pay close attention to ingredients. Lines such as Silver with nano silver and Leaf with hydroxyapatite also broaden the range with different approaches to enamel protection.
Why choose Earthpaste toothpastes?
Earthpaste products rely on a simple formula and a mineral base for several reasons. First, they make use of the alkalising properties of clay, which help balance pH in the mouth and counter the acidic environment that supports tooth decay. Second, the formula is built around just a few familiar ingredients – clay, salt, essential oils and xylitol. Third, production also uses energy from solar sources in Utah.
Earthpaste is an alternative to conventional oral care: these oral care products are based on a simple formula and an emphasis on safety. The whole range comes from a mineral base drawn from a single geological source in Utah, which underlines the origin of the ingredients used. The range can be complemented with glycerine-free toothpastes, unrefined Real Salt for everyday kitchen use, and Re-Lyte electrolytes.
FAQ – Earthpaste
Why doesn’t Earthpaste foam like conventional toothpastes?
Earthpaste contains no foaming agents such as SLS (sodium lauryl sulphate). Foam does not affect cleaning ability; in Earthpaste, this role is taken on by clay, which binds impurities physically (by adsorption) without burdening the oral mucosa.
Why is the absence of glycerine in the toothpaste so important?
Glycerine can create an invisible coating on the teeth that prevents saliva from reaching the tooth surface. Without this coating, the minerals in saliva can naturally contribute to the remineralisation of tooth enamel throughout the day.
Is the toothpaste safe for young kids who swallow it?
Yes, it is made to remain gentle even if accidentally swallowed. Because it contains no fluoride or chemical foaming agents, its formula is based on simple ingredients such as clay, salt and xylitol, so accidental swallowing does not present a risk.
Does Earthpaste have a whitening effect?
Earthpaste removes surface staining through mechanical action. The clay works as a very gentle abrasive that removes surface pigments without damaging enamel. A more pronounced cleaning effect may come from the variant with activated charcoal.
