Dr. Sheffield’s Naturals is a Certified Natural fluoride-free toothpaste flavor that actually tastes good. Based off the original recipe, created by Dr. Washington W. Sheffield from more than 168 years ago, with beautiful packaging that is reminiscent of simpler times, Dr. Sheffield’s Naturals is back to claim its rightful stake as the inventor of modern toothpaste.
It ranges based on toothpaste type, but is generally low-mild abrasiveness. Specific information is available by request via our contact page.
Our entire line is now being produced in recyclable packing, this includes an aluminum tube and plastic cap that are both fully-recyclable.
In our opinion, Dr. Sheffield’s Toothpaste tastes great! Too often, natural products sacrifice taste and texture. Our goal with Dr. Sheffield’s was to create a product that was natural, and provided a taste, texture efficacy that people would expect and love!
It is mixed, filled and packaged in New London, Connecticut.
Many people may not know that they receive a dose of fluoride not only from Fluorinated water, but from many of the foods they eat and drink. Many feel that additional Fluoride in toothpaste is not needed, and Dr. Sheffield’s Natural Toothpaste offers people a great tasting, Fluoride free alternative.
We saw that natural products were in demand, and we felt that the natural toothpaste market, which is dominated by one brand, did not offer consumers a choice for a great tasting product which was effective. Who better than Sheffield, the originator of toothpaste in a tube to introduce an alternative?
Since Dr. Sheffield’s Whitening Toothpaste does not use harsh, synthetic bleaching agents which can cause tooth sensitivity, using it should not cause any tooth sensitivity.
History
Dr. Washington Wentworth Sheffield was an American dental surgeon who invented modern toothpaste. With the help of his son Lucius T. Sheffield, he was the first person to place the paste in collapsible tubes for public sale. He also made important contributions to the fields of Dentistry and Dental Surgery and later started the Sheffield Dentifrice Company.

Dr. Sheffield’s Toothpaste uses natural sweeteners, such as Xylitol and Stevia, and natural flavor extracts, such as Peppermint, Spearmint, Fennel, and Myrrh.
Rather than use synthetic, harsh bleaching chemicals which can harm the tooth enamel, our whitening formulas use two natural Enzymes.
