Georganics Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste
Georganics
Hydroxyapatite toothpaste
A remineralising hydroxyapatite paste that swaps the usual plastic laminate tube for a recyclable aluminium tube and compostable box. The small HDPE cap is the only plastic, so it scores a 2: low-plastic, not fully plastic-free. This mint version contains fluoride at 1350ppm and a fluoride-free hydroxyapatite version is also sold, so choose by your dental preference.
A remineralising hydroxyapatite toothpaste in a recyclable aluminium tube with a compostable box. The only plastic is the small HDPE cap, so it is low-plastic rather than plastic-free.
How this score breaks down
Strengths
- Recyclable aluminium tube and compostable box instead of a plastic laminate tube
- No microplastics: the actives are minerals (hydroxyapatite and calcium carbonate)
- SLS-free formula with a fully disclosed ingredient list
- COSMOS Natural certified, vegan, and cruelty-free (brand-stated)
Trade-offs
- The HDPE screw cap is plastic, so this is low-plastic rather than fully plastic-free
- The Fresh Mint version contains fluoride at 1350ppm; a fluoride-free hydroxyapatite version is available, so choose by your dental needs
- COSMOS Natural, vegan, and cruelty-free are brand-stated and still being confirmed in the certifier registries, so this entry is partial confidence

About Georganics
Georganics is a natural oral-care company founded in 2016 in the UK around a single question: what does your mouth actually need. It makes toothpastes in tubes, jars, tablets, and powders, along with beechwood and sonic brushes, tongue scrapers, floss, and mouthwash tablets.
The brand's approach is ingredient-first and low-waste, built on refillable glass jars, vegetable-ink cartons, and a recycling scheme, though its vegan and cruelty-free positioning is stated by the brand rather than tied to a named certifier. It is refreshingly honest about its limits, noting that plastic caps on some newer tubes remain unsolved, so the range is low-plastic rather than fully plastic-free.
