Even the best toothpaste can’t do it alone
We’re so proud of what goes into ours. But even the best toothpaste won’t work unless you’re cleaning between your teeth too.
Your brush only reaches the front, back and tops of your teeth. Plaque likes to sit between them and just under the gum line, and that’s exactly where gums start to struggle. Floss and interdental brushes reach the places a brush can’t, so the whole routine works together.
Your gum care routine
Floss first, then brush. Clearing between your teeth first means the toothpaste can reach further when you brush.
Start with floss
Ease it just under the gum line and curve it around each tooth. That’s where plaque likes to settle.
Then clean the gaps
An interdental brush slips between your teeth and cleans the surfaces your toothbrush never reaches.
Now brush
A pea-sized scoop of toothpaste on the spatula, then two minutes, morning and night. With the gaps already clear, it can reach further.
Rinse in between
A splash of probiotic mouthwash in the cup after lunch, or whenever your mouth needs freshening up.

Every piece has a job
+
Botanical toothpaste
Our Original toothpaste, made with neem, myrrh, clove and organic aloe vera, botanicals that have been studied for supporting healthy gums. Peppermint and wintergreen leave your mouth feeling clean and fresh. It won’t foam, and that’s the point.
Scoop a pea-sized amount onto your brush so fingers and wet bristles stay out of the jar. It keeps every scoop clean, right to the last one.
+
Probiotic mouthwash
Strong Mint, alcohol free and made with aloe vera and a lactobacillus ferment. Use it between brushes, after lunch or whenever your mouth needs freshening up.
Pour, rinse, done. It lives by the sink next to the bottle, so rinsing becomes part of your day rather than something you remember now and then.
Bamboo charcoal floss
Floss reaches just beneath the gum line, where plaque gathers and a brush can’t follow. It comes in a refillable glass vial, so when you run out you only replace the floss.
Bamboo interdental brushes
Tiny brushes for the gaps between your teeth, the surfaces your toothbrush misses every time. There’s one of each size in the pack so you can find the ones that fit your gaps.
Worried about receding gums?
Receding gums are a common concern and often develop gradually over time. They are usually linked to plaque build-up, inflammation around the gums, brushing habits, genetics, diet and lifestyle.
While gum tissue that has already receded usually cannot grow back naturally, there is still a lot you can do to support gum health and slow further recession.
The most effective approach is a combination of:
• regular hygienist appointments to clean below the gumline
• a consistent home oral care routine that removes plaque and bacteria
• lifestyle habits that support healthy gums
Keeping plaque under control and reducing inflammation around the gums is one of the most important ways to support long-term gum health.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can receding gums grow back?
Once gum tissue has receded, it usually does not grow back naturally. Gum recession is often the result of plaque build-up, inflammation around the gums, brushing habits, genetics, or gum disease over time.
However, this doesn’t mean there is nothing you can do. The most effective approach is to focus on controlling plaque and supporting healthy gums, which can help slow further recession and improve overall gum comfort.
This usually involves a combination of:
• regular hygienist appointments to clean below the gumline
• daily flossing and interdental cleaning
• gentle brushing
• maintaining a consistent oral care routine
In some situations, reducing inflammation around the gums can help them feel firmer and healthier around the teeth, although this is not the same as regrowing lost gum tissue.
Can I clean my teeth at home without seeing a hygienist?
A good home routine is essential, but professional hygienist appointments play an important role in gum health.
Hygienists can remove hardened plaque (tartar) and clean deeper around the gumline and inside gum pockets, which cannot be reached with brushing and flossing alone.
For people experiencing gum problems or recession, regular hygienist visits are often recommended alongside a consistent daily routine.
Which toothpaste is best for receding gums?
botanical ingredients such as neem, myrrh and aloe vera traditionally used to support gum health.
These ingredients help maintain a cleaner oral environment and support healthy gums as part of a consistent routine.
If gum recession has left teeth feeling more exposed or vulnerable, some people also choose to add hydroxyapatite products to help support enamel protection and sensitivity.
Do I need to use both floss and interdentals?
Floss and interdental brushes clean slightly different areas, so using both can give the most thorough clean.
String floss is excellent for cleaning just under the gumline and around the curve of the tooth, where plaque and bacteria often accumulate.
Interdental brushes are designed to clean the spaces between teeth where gaps are larger or where gums may have receded, allowing deeper cleaning between teeth.
Using both helps remove plaque from areas brushing alone cannot reach.
What size interdental brush should I use?
Interdental brushes come in different sizes to suit different spaces between teeth.
A brush should fit comfortably between teeth without forcing it. If it feels too tight, try a smaller size.
Many people use more than one size depending on the area of the mouth. If you’re unsure, a dental hygienist can recommend the best size for your teeth and gums.
When should I use mouthwash
Mouthwash is best used after meals or at times when brushing isn’t possible to help cleanse the mouth and support plaque control.
If you are brushing with Truthpaste, it’s usually best to avoid rinsing immediately afterwards, as this allows the toothpaste ingredients more time to remain on the teeth.
For many people, an effective routine is to floss or use interdental brushes first, then rinse with mouthwash, and brush separately.
Used consistently, mouthwash can help support a cleaner oral environment between brushing.
What order should I use the products in?
For a thorough gum care routine, we recommend the following order:
- Use interdental brushes first to remove plaque and food debris from the spaces between teeth where gaps are larger.
- Floss next to clean just underneath the gumline and around the curve of the tooth, where plaque often accumulates.
- Brush with Truthpaste to clean the tooth surfaces and support gum health with botanical ingredients.
- Use mouthwash after meals to help cleanse the mouth and support a balanced oral environment.
Interdental brushes and floss can also be used in different areas of the mouth depending on the size of the gaps between teeth. Many people find using both gives the most thorough clean.
