Tom's of Maine Fluoride-Free Toothpaste

I take good care of my teeth; I time my brushes for 3mn so that I do not overbrush, I use a waterpik twice with two different heads, I use one of those plaque removers, and I brush my tongue. I have been sticking to this regiment for years, and it works for me. What I have been experimenting with is trying to find a more natural toothpaste. I have used Sensodyne Pronamel for most of my life. I tried out BOKA, and that was great. I still felt that it had too many ingredients for "natural", so I tried out Tom's. After a short amount of time using this toothpaste, I noticed that my teeth started to feel sensitive while brushing and flossing. Such a nasty painful feeling that makes me cringe. I stopped using that toothpaste and used "MI Paste Plus" in order to fix that sensitivity problem. I used the paste until my teeth felt normal again. I was not going to give up on Tom's just yet, so I tried it again. Needless to say, I had three teeth that ended up hurting again. I have given up on Tom's. I have an unopened box and one that is at least 75% full. I am actually thankful for this blessing in disguise because it pushed me to make my own toothpaste. I have been contemplating making my own paste for at least two years, and I have finally done it. My teeth feel great and I am happy using the least amount of healthy ingredients I can. It is affective.
