I'm a long time user of Tom's of Maine Fennel flavored toothpaste. I gave Frau Fowler tooth powder a tentative try. Boy, am I impressed. I tip a teaspoon into the tin and apply the powder onto my dry Sonicare toothbrush. I love it and will never go back to toothpaste.

I love the powder. It has a great flavor and is reasonably priced compared to some. The container can be difficult to work with and one of my kids put the lid on crooked which required us to destroy it to get it open. We found a small tea container to put the powder in and will probably do that from now on.

I love the taste and feel of this tooth powder on my teeth. Very refreshing! I gave it 3 stars because the tin that the powder comes in allows moisture in and the last time I checked (I haven't used it for 3 days because I can't get the tin open....) the powder was very wet- it's still summer here in New England. Change the packaging and this will be a 5 star review!

Definitely helps with tooth sensitivy while not being too strong that it hurts. Hard to get used to not rinsing your mouth with water after you brush ;) good flavor. It's abrasive without being harsh

I really like this tooth powder. It has definitely converted me to a tooth powders user. My only (small) complaint is it is really salty. I wish the licorice flavor was stronger than the salt flavor. However, for the price and the awesomeness of the product, I'm going to keep using it. I just wish there was a lower salt version.

Love this tooth powder! I have used several on the market, and made my own, but this is my favorite. It makes your mouth feel clean for a long time, and tastes great.My only complaint/ suggestion for improvement is the packaging. It's winter and in the midwest, that means dry hands. The outside of the container is so smooth that sometimes my hands just slip and it's hard to open. It would be easier with ridges on the outside.

My best friend sent me this tooth powder as a birthday gift because she knew I'd love it...but may not know it yet! She was right, I certainly wouldn't have thought to buy it for myself. I was so used to the toothpaste my dentist recommended. I am officially obsessed with Frau Fowler Tooth Power, and I love all the flavors, especially the cinnamon clove! This product makes me very excited to brush my teeth - and my teeth are happy about all of it! My whole mouth is happy!Note: I LOVE the packaging! However, due to high humidity where I live, my containers wouldn't open and I had to get into them with a chef's knife!! LOL :) Now I do not screw the tins closed, but just leave the lid on lightly.

Really love how this tooth powder makes my mouth feel clean! The flavor is tasty and sometimes I just swish a bit in my mouth as a mouthwash as well as brushing with it. After brushing, my teeth feel so very clean and my hygengist has been quite happy with the state of my teeth over the past year or so I have been using it. My only concern is if you are sensitive to the taste of salt it might be too strong.

I have extremely sensitive teeth. So sensitive that I normally use a prescription toothpaste and hate the flavor of all of them. I figured is give this a try to use together and it's amazing. It took me about a week to get used to the salty taste and now I barely notice it.I did take 1 star away because of the packaging. It need some type of flip lid but other then that. Great product. I personally am going to transfer it into a breath mint container.

I accidentally bought the licorice flavor, My daughter likes this toothpaste but prefers mint. My mother 60's on the other hand loved this flavor. Both are very strong and salty. We have noticed my daughters canker sores are very few and far between since starting with this toothpaste , She used Earthpaste for years before, which I do prefer. But I bought this to improve her teeth, she is prone to cavities. We will have to wait and see if her back molars remineralize, but we are trying. Teeth do feel strong after using.

My 1st ever tooth powder, looking for a cruelty-free, plastic-free solution to conventional toothpaste which comes in plastic tubes. It took a few days getting used to the powder feel and not rinsing after brushing, and I have used it with a power brush and a bamboo brush, both work well. This powder does the job, cleans well, removes stains and leaves a pleasantly fresh aftertaste. No issues with sensitivity, the salt does not bother me. Love the Licorice and may try Mouth Medic next. Reading complaints about the tin, spilling and clumping, I transfer 1 teaspoon at a time to a mini Altoid tin for daily use, so any accident would be minimal, and is easy to open and close.

I like almost everything about this product except for its high maintenance quality. I left the lid off the product while I drew a bath and some moisture accumulated in the bathroom. Next thing I knew, the tooth powder was clumpy and wet. I never ever dip a wet toothbrush in the powder as I feel that's unsanitary. So instead I always dump a little bit in my hand first and use it from my hand. Now I have a clumpy, moist, weird, mess of a product on my hands and feel like it's growing bacteria and I've wasted money. Don't make my mistake. Always always close the lid because this stuff absorbs moisture from the air.

I got this because with my mouth drying out so bad from sjogrens my teeth get a lot of funk going on and regular toothpaste doesn't seem to quite get it. I don't plan to use this every day.. kind of as needed. I was worried about the taste (I got the licorice one) but its actually a pretty pleasant flavor. It was salty tasting but not bad at all. And it wasn't overwhelmingly foamy like normal toothpaste which was kind of nice. If you're on the fence I'd say give it a shot. It makes your teeth feel nice and smooth like they just got cleaned. My kids thought it was funny they could hear squeaking while I was brushing.

Great flavors, ease of use, my mouth feels clean and refreshed! When I was a child (50+ years ago) we used Dr. Lion's Tooth Powder. I searched all over, but it was no where to be found. Then I found Frau Fowler on Amazon and I couldn't be happier, so I thought. Then my s/s order didn't arrive before I ran out and I had to use regular tooth paste for a few days. Well, I was in misery - mouth felt like paste, foamy, couldn't rinse enough times to get rid of the feeling and taste. Today my s/s arrived and I am so happy. This stuff is the greatest. I thought I loved it before (I've been using it for about a year) but since I ran out now I know how much I love this product and I will make sure I never run out again!!! Thanks for a great product.

I LOVE this tooth powder. I'm a big fan of tooth powders b/c i avoid flouride and glycerin and like all things as natural and clean as possible. My teeth feel great after brushing with this powder. i also really like the packaging! Very happy customer!! Also be sure to not ever brush too hard and vigorously. Be gentle and dont be in a hurry while brushing. Tooth powders are the best but they can be abrasive on your teeth/gums if you arent thoughtful and cognizant about being thorough but gentle.

I love this tooth powder and will probably never go back to a paste. my dentist recommended dry brushing, and that's what I do with this tooth powder. it tastes great better than any other toothpaste I have had, and it leaves a very clean feeling in my mouth. I do not rinse afterwards as recommended either.

The tooth powder itself works well and left my mouth feeling clean. The metal container however was a nightmare. Arrived with a dent that prevented the top from opening. Spent an hour trying to open it before giving up and using tin snips to cut the top open. Had to transfer it to a container I had laying around.

I really like this. I got the licorice flavour and it's pleasant. My teeth feel clean and fresh. I thought it would be strange to not rinse it out but it really isn't. I read in other reviews it's so salty but I didn't really find that. I have been using natural toothpastes and powders for a long time tho.For a traveller like me it's great. I have been eliminating plastic from my toiletries and so I am happy about the tin. It could use a redesign but it's not as bad as I thought. Hopefully it won't get rusty here in the tropics..Anyway I recommend it and will order again.

I love the taste and the whitening power but find it a bit unsanitary to use the powder as i think it was intended. I use only a small amount every day in a separate container. Not sure how this can be resolved by the manufacturer but I'm not a marketing genius either! I love that the ingredients are natural and that it's a small company. I always prefer to support small businesses rather than large corporations and this is one company and tooth powder that I will be telling my friends about, for sure

My teeth never felt cleaner, and I no longer have sensitivity after brushing.If you have a difficult time getting the lid off. It's because it is not aligned. Simply snap down the lid so it aligns with the can and twist off.

A little goes a long way. Please use a tiny amount, especially on your first use.My husband and I repeatedly express how our teeth feel dentist clean after each brushing.In addition, our mouths are not dry. Our mouth feels fresh and clean. We do not wake up with offensive morning breath. All day clean feeling.We pour a small amount into our hands, then dip our toothbrush into our hands.

Feels great using a toothpaste that is actually healthy. So healthy, that you don't even need to rinse it out after brushing. Can't imagine not rinsing after using regular toothpaste. There's actually a warning on regular toothpaste not to swallow the toothpaste, and if you do call poison contro😳I had gotten a few samples of all the flavors they offer at the health food store, and chose the Licorice Mint. It's a great flavor.It is even recommended to carry a small amount around with you to use throughout the day, if you need to freshen your breath. Great product!

From the first time I used this tooth powder, I knew I was going to like it. I've never been a fan of strong minty flavors. The gentle mint licorice is pleasant. I knew it was effective at cleaning teeth when I heard it squeak, as in squeaky clean. This isn't for the faint of heart. You don't rinse! It took me a minute to wrap my mind on that. So far , I've used it four days with no ill side effects.

I stumbled across this product when I was searching for licorice flavored toothpaste: I ordered one of the licorice flavor and one of the samurai citrus mint. I love the flavor of both: the licorice is clean and unadulterated. The mint reminds me of the flavor of juicy fruit gum. The only thing I don't like about it is it seems to take the top layer of enamel off of the teeth. I've noticed increased sensitivity to hot and cold foods and liquids since using this product. However, it whitens and cleans between the teeth better than regular toothpaste and the flavor is great: not spitting means the flavor lasts just like a candy breath freshener would.

I wanted to love this product. I bought a container with the Anise/mint flavor and did not like the taste at all. The product itself is fine. I’ve used several natural tooth powders and it is comparable. I tried their sample packets and the charcoal one was the only one I didn’t mind the taste. I even added some charcoal to the one I purchased to try and enhance the flavor...to no avail. The container is a pain to open. I would suggest you try the samples if you can and find a flavor you prefer if you are thinking about buying this product.

I like this product a lot, but not as a tooth powder. Come to find out tooth powders are not my thing.That being said I did find an awesome alternative use for this! I have sinus problems and I often get a sore throat due to drainage. I gargle with warm saltwater to help sooth my throat. I decided to add some of this to half a cup of warm saltwater mainly to help with the taste, but it also has peppermint oil in it which has pain relieving qualities.Let me tell you that it work a lot better than just plain warm saltwater and leaves you with a better taste in your mouth too!

Even after reading all the good reviews, I didn’t expect much from this product and was really just looking for a light weight travel toothpaste. I ordered the Licorice Mint flavor, tried it, and this will now be the only toothpaste I ever use.I have sensitive teeth and gums and I didn’t have any problems at all adjusting to this powdered tooth cleaner. My teeth felt cleaner than they ever have with toothpaste.The only drawback is the circular plastic tub the powder comes in. It’s extremely difficult to open. Definitely not something you want to struggle with twice a day. I solved the problem by transferring the powder to a small Tupperware container. You could probably also just use a Ziploc bag.

Love this! The flavor is great. I was using (and still do) the cinnamon one but once I tried the licorice, I was hooked on that flavor. This does take some getting used to because you do not rinse your mouth after brushing. This is so the product can stay on your teeth and gums and help build your enamel back up. I bought it because I was having a lot of tooth sensitivity as well as developing mouth sores--pretty much like you'd get if you had eaten a lot of acidic foods like lemons. After some reading, I realized the fluoride could be contributing to the frequent mouth issues and that this product could help build up my enamel and decrease the sensitivity, so I decided to go off commercial toothpaste and try this. It's been really good. I don't have the tooth sensitivity anymore and the frequency of sores has decreased, both of which I attribute to getting off the chemicals in commercial pastes and using this product to go more natural. If you hate black licorice, this flavor won't be for you, but there are a bunch of others to choose from.

For a long time I have looked for a healthy way to brush my teeth. Products that say not to swallow, have always concerned me. Flouride concerns me. I also have tooth sensitivity. I love Frau Fowler, because it seems they share these concerns, as well, but instead of remaining a persnickety consumer, she fixed the problem. This is impressive and VERY appreciated by those of us that prefer to complain while we keep searching and trying.I have Mouth Medic and Licorice Mint. I use them interchangeably. Both are wonderful. I have been using Frau Fowler for about three weeks. I will continue to use!!! In the meantime, my teeth do get very shiny. My sensitivity is noticeably reduced, though not gone. I read that with long term use, the sensitivity will continue to diminish. The whiteness is great. I am not a bleacher, but I do hate how stained my teeth can get from tea, coffee. I usually use an herbal rinse to help with this, but have not needed it since using Frau Fowler.Thank You Frau Fowler for the quality, care, time and work that was and continues to be invested. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!

Unfortunately I found out that I needed some deep scaling when I went to the dentist. The mouthwash that they gave me had a side effect of yellowing the teeth among other nasty things. Since using this tooth powder I can tell the difference. My gums are no longer sensitive nor bleeding. When I go back to the periodontist I Will update this review to let you know how the visit went.
