Enamel strengthening toothpaste?

Hi Everyone.


New to the forum. I paid a visit to my dentist today and he told me that the enamel on my teeth is soft and thus prone to cavities. He suggested I start using MI Paste. I was interested until the next sentence out of his mouth was "contains a special milk-derived protein that strengthens your enamel." I replied, well, I'm vegan, so I don't consume milk-derived anything. Is there an alternative? He didn't know of one, so he gave me the MI Paste pamphlet and told me to think about it.


I'm thinking I worried about my teeth, but not interested in consuming a cow-milk derived protein. Has anyone else here run into this situation? Have you found any alternative enamel-boosting toothpastes that are vegan?


Any ideas are much appreciated!

Well, I answered my own question. After reading this: http://www.healingteethnaturally.com/products-remineralizing-strengthening-teeth-reducing-caries.html I went out and bought some eco-dent at Whole Foods. Seems like the way to go.
