If I'm caught without it I usually have coconut oil which I use for everything - and I will brush with that and oil pull.
but i've only had to do that a couple of times.

If I didn't have that I would use a little drop of Dr. Bronners.

I don't like minty, and a lot of the widely available toothpastes have SLS and aluminum oxide and they're expensive so..yeah I avoid toothpaste faithfully.

Oh and I have tried an Indian neem tooth powder. I liked the taste- like star anise.
