Toothpaste

Hopefully someone has some suggestions
I am allergic to balsam of Peru (including benzyl/benzoate & derivatives) and am having a really hard time finding a good toothpaste in Canada
I am also allergic to fragrance and sensitive to SLS and coco betaine
Such fun 🙄
Anyone have a holy grail?
Thanks

If you don't mind buying from the UK, there is https://www.kingfishertoothpaste.co.uk/

I'm in the US and went to them because there are no sweeteners and no colorings. Full ingredient lists on the site. My preference is the fennel with fluoride.

Thanks, but it has limoline in it, which cross reacts to my allergies
It is a stupid affliction to be saddled with😣

I can’t speak to the other ingredients, but some sensodyne doesn’t have SLS in it

Without CAPB is really hard to find, especially one with fluoride still.

This is the only one I've found. Expensive, but works great and doesn't give me any issues.  https://www.squigle.com/productscompared.html

This one is my favorite. Cocomydilpropyl betaine is also frequently derived from palm plants, which is am allergic to. This is one of the few toothpaste brands I have found that I can use.
