When it comes to oral health, we’ve been on quite the mission to find the best toothpaste, because as we found out early on, it’s not only about avoiding chemicals.
At Short Street Kitchen, we’re proud to be the first Australian stockist of Fygg Natural Toothpaste, a product we’ve personally chosen for its premium ingredients and commitment to natural, science-backed oral care. This product not only protects your teeth but also supports your oral microbiome, and comes in a natural, fluoride-free formulation. After searching the market for years and trying countless other brands, we are truly excited to be able to now offer this product to our customers. In this article we will share all the reasons why we use and recommend Fygg toothpaste.
1. Fluoride-free, yet highly effective
One of the most significant advantages of Fygg Natural Toothpaste is its use of nano-hydroxyapatite (n-Ha), a mineral that forms 97% of tooth enamel. Originally developed by NASA for astronauts, nano-hydroxyapatite is a clinically-proven, non-toxic alternative to fluoride. It effectively remineralises tooth enamel, reduces sensitivity, and brightens your smile—all without the potential health risks and concerns linked to fluoride.
For those of us who prefer a natural approach to health, Fygg offers a fluoride-free option that also provides protection and results that rival more conventional toothpastes. The science speaks for itself—nano-hydroxyapatite restores your teeth while maintaining a healthy, toxin-free oral environment.
2. Supports a healthy oral microbiome
You’ve no doubt heard us talk about how important it is to cultivate a healthy gut microbiome. Did you know that the health of your mouth affects your overall wellness, including your gut? Fygg toothpaste contains prebiotics and amino acids that help "feed the good guys" in your mouth, supporting the beneficial bacteria that play a role in maintaining not only oral health but also your immune system and digestion.
Traditional toothpastes often contain chemicals like SLS and essential oils, which can strip away both harmful and beneficial bacteria, disrupting your mouth’s delicate balance. Fygg is formulated without these ingredients.
3. Perfect for Sensitive Teeth and Gums
If you struggle with tooth sensitivity, Fygg is a fantastic option. Thanks to its nano-hydroxyapatite content, Fygg not only strengthens and remineralises teeth but also soothes sensitivity. It's a gentle formula that is free from harsh foaming agents like SLS, so brushing with Fygg won’t irritate your gums.
Our own experience with this product has been overwhelmingly positive—our teeth feel cleaner, smoother, and more resilient without the irritation or dryness that some other natural toothpastes can cause.
4. High-Quality Ingredients, Less Is More
Fygg is a premium toothpaste, with quality that is unmatched on the market currently, and we expect some people might balk at the price. It’s worth noting that a pea-sized amount for adults and a grain of rice for children is all you need per use, meaning a single tube lasts longer than you might expect. It’s an investment in your health, just like many tox-free options out there, but it’s also practical, sustainable and has advantages other brands just don’t offer.
5. Eco-Friendly and Tox-Free
As toxin-free, clean living advocates, we at Short Street Kitchen are always on the lookout for products that align with our values, and Fygg fits the bill. It’s vegan, gluten-free, and comes in recyclable packaging. When you choose Fygg, you're making a conscious decision to reduce toxins in your home and contribute to a healthier planet.
6. Great Tasting and More Comfortable Brushing
Brushing with Fygg Natural Toothpaste is a refreshing and gentle experience that is great for those who are more sensitive or resistant to brushing because of the harsh foaming or intense flavour. The taste of Fygg toothpaste is mild and clean, with subtle flavours like mint or vanilla that don’t overwhelm the palate or cause the burning sensation common with other toothpaste brands. The lack of harsh foaming agents and chemicals like SLS means you’re left with a smooth, pleasant feeling in your mouth after brushing, without any dryness or irritation. We were surprised at how light and natural it felt, with a lingering freshness that’s both satisfying and long-lasting—making oral care feel like an indulgence more than a chore!
