AndreaCinnamon tablets
Finally! I have found the perfect toothpaste tablets. I have tried a bunch, and I like these the best. My teeth are clean, my gums feel happy, and I like the lower intensity taste.

Why this bundle exists
You have already tried to read the label.
Thirty ingredients, half of them eleven syllables long, and no honest way to tell which one matters. So you put it back on the shelf.
Dr. Ann Nguyen-Chung had the same problem, and she is a dentist. When a drugstore lip balm gave her a reaction, even she could not tell which ingredient caused it. So she started writing her own formulas.
Twelve ingredients or fewer, and every single one has to earn its place.
Full transparency
Seven ingredients. Here they all are.
No fine print, no proprietary blend. This is the complete list in the peppermint tablets.
1
Xylitol
A plant-derived sweetener long used in oral care products.
2
Baking soda
The gentle, familiar cleaner from the bathroom cabinet.
3
Calcium phosphate
A mineral naturally found in tooth enamel.
4
Quillaja saponaria
A soap bark extract. It is what makes the tablet foam.
5
Calcium stearate
Holds the tablet together so it keeps its shape.
6
Mint extract
The clean, fresh finish at the end of brushing.
7
Stevia
A touch of plant sweetness. No sugar.
That is the entire list.
Nothing hiding behind "and other ingredients".
Fluoride freePreservative freeSulfate freeNo artificial flavors
The entire learning curve
Chew. Brush. Smile.
If you can use a breath mint, you already know how to do this.
- 1
Chew one tablet
Chew it briefly, then start brushing. It foams up just like regular toothpaste.
- 2
Brush with a wet brush
Two minutes, morning and before bed, exactly as you already do.
- 3
Rinse and go
Same clean finish. No tube to squeeze, no cap rolling into the sink.

Who made this
A dentist who got tired of not knowing what was in the tube.
Dr. Ann Nguyen-Chung spends her working days looking inside people's mouths. In 2020 a conventional lip balm gave her a reaction, and the ingredient list was so long that even she could not identify the culprit.
She started making her own from ingredients she recognized, handed them to friends, family and patients, and kept hearing the same thing: I have the same problem, I just gave up looking.
Everything Hippotanicals makes still answers one question: does this ingredient truly need to be here? Vegan and cruelty free, certified through PETA, in biodegradable packaging.

I love the convenience of just popping in a tablet and being able to brush my teeth. I enjoy not having to buy and throw away tubes of leftover toothpaste. I will be a customer for life.

Before you decide
Questions, answered.
Do toothpaste tablets actually work?
Yes. You chew the tablet briefly, then brush with a wet toothbrush, and it foams up just like regular toothpaste. The cleaning comes from brushing, exactly as it always has. The tablet is simply toothpaste in a dry, solid form.
Is it difficult to use?
It takes about fifteen seconds to learn: chew, brush, rinse. Most people are past the unfamiliar first morning by day two.
What if I do not like the taste or texture?
The tablet is lightly sweetened with xylitol and stevia, and the foam comes from soap bark extract. If mint is not for you, choose cinnamon on the order form. And if it still is not right, write to us. We would rather hear it.
How long does the bundle last?
One tube holds 60 tablets, which is about one month brushing twice a day. The bamboo toothbrush is designed to be replaced every three to four months, and the floss roll is 33 yards. You can add a second tube at checkout if you would like two months of tablets.
Is the guide really free?
Yes. A Healthier Smile, Simplified is a 19-page PDF that sells for $19.99 on our website. With this bundle it is included free, and it arrives by email right after your order.
Is the guide medical advice?
No. It is general education written by a dentist, not individual care, and it does not replace an exam. Dr. Ann recommends taking questions about your own mouth to your own dentist, and the guide includes a list of questions to bring.
It costs more than supermarket toothpaste. Why?
Small batches, recognizable ingredients and plastic free packaging cost more than mass production. A tube of tablets works out at roughly 37 cents a day. If that trade is not worth it for you, we would honestly rather you kept your money.
Are the tablets fluoride free?
Yes. Fluoride is a personal decision and one worth discussing with your own dentist, and the guide explains the evidence on fluoride and nano-hydroxyapatite in plain language.
I have never heard of Hippotanicals. Who are you?
A small, woman owned California business founded in 2020 by Dr. Ann Nguyen-Chung, a practicing dentist. We are PETA certified vegan and cruelty free, have been featured by Yahoo Health, PETA, WGN Chicago, KRCR News and more, and our 356 Etsy reviews are public.
Is it suitable for the whole family?
The tablets are made for adults and older children who can chew and spit reliably. For younger children, or anyone with a dental condition or allergy history, check the full ingredient list with your own dentist first.
