Short answer: All three Burst toothpastes share the same no-filler philosophy but differ in fluoride content and RDA (relative dentin abrasivity) — worth picking deliberately rather than grabbing whichever tube is in stock.
The shared foundation
Enamel-safe, gluten-free, vegan, animal-cruelty-free, free from SLS/artificial sweeteners/flavors/dyes, and contains xylitol. 100% recyclable, BPA-free tube.
Wild Mint Toothpaste (fluoride)
RDA 58.76. The standard, fluoride-based formula — the right default recommendation for most patients wanting proven cavity protection.
Natural Wild Mint Toothpaste (fluoride-free)
RDA 66.80. Worth pairing with a conversation about cavity risk profile, since fluoride remains the most evidence-backed cavity-prevention ingredient available.
Charcoal Coconut Salt Toothpaste
RDA 73.14, whitening anticavity formula with fluoride. The highest RDA of the three — a good pairing for patients also using the whitening line, with the caveat that higher-RDA formulas can be more abrasive and shouldn’t be a patient’s only toothpaste long-term.
A simple decision framework
Cavity risk and fluoride preference first, whitening goals second.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Burst toothpaste should I use?
Wild Mint (fluoride, RDA 58.76) is the default recommendation for most patients; Natural Wild Mint is fluoride-free; Charcoal Coconut Salt leans whitening-focused.
Is charcoal toothpaste safe for daily use?
It has the highest RDA of the three (73.14) — many dental professionals recommend alternating with a lower-RDA formula rather than using it exclusively.
