    Another alternate to using herbal sticks is using toothpastes that are fortified with pure extracts of these age old natural remedies. Herbal toothpastes like Dabur Babool and Dabur Meswak are packed with natural goodness and extracts of Babool & Miswak trees thus aid in keeping your teeth clean & strong, and give them an effective protection from germs, decay and cavities of any kind.
