I got curious about making a tooth brushing powder with some lavender, of course. I read up on some ingredients and then tried my first batch.
1/8 C Baking soda (neutralization and scrubbies)
2 drops peppermint essential oil (flavor and a whole host of benefits)
2 drops lavender essential oil (anti-microbial)
1/8 tsp of Equal sweetener (Aspartame, while somewhat questionable for health is powdered, but glyercine would make a paste and sweeten it - depends on what you want)
It didn't taste all that good, but after brushing with it my mouth feels really fresh and clean. Let me know if you try anything like this, and we'll all get some great ideas for DIY lavender tooth paste/powder recipes.

Hmmmm, I am going to have to think on that one you may try Stevia products for somewhat more healthful results. I'll have to think of a binding agent that might work well. I like your blog. Check mine at purpledoglavender.blogspot.com
