SLS free: Rembrandt brand toothpaste is free of sodium lauryl sulfate (sls), a detergent found in many toothpastes. Some people say their canker sores go away if they use sls free toothpaste. There are multiple brands of sls free toothpaste to use as an alternative if you are sensitive to sls.

Apthous ulcers from: Trauma or other causes seem to occur more often when an additive found in most all toothpastes, called sodium lauryl sulfate (sls), is used in the formulation. Rembrandt was made without the sls. Look for toothpaste brand "biotene" or others without sls. Sls doesn't cause the ulcers, just makes those who have problems w ulcers tend to get them more frequently. Good luck !
