CHOOSE GREENER TOOTHPASTE

Before heading down the toothpaste aisle, know where your brand stands.

Tom's of Maine scored highest on Good Guide's list of ecofriendly toothpastes, while Dr. Ken's and Desert Essence earned top honors in Grist's paste test.

Of course, you can skip the tube altogether by making your own. Conserve toothpaste by using only the recommended pea-sized amount.

For a vegan floss with some green cred, try Eco-DenT.
