Some toothpastes also contain PEG.

yes indeed, most regular toothpastes have all kinds of distrust causing ingredients. I tend to use Jasons, auromere, weleda when on sale, and desert essence, and I always read the ingredients before ordering, because toms of maine got taken over by bigchem and then you buy colgate for 4 times the price !

I brush my teeth with water, a toothbrush, and nothing on the toothbrush. Am I missing anything?

I don't know. For years my dad brushed his teeth with a piece of wood with nothing at all on it. He had very strong teeth until about 10 years ago. He is now almost 89 and has partial dentures. Mom has cleaned her teeth all her life and lost most of her teeth in her 20s. One dentist told dad that most people ruin their teeth by cleaning them too much ! A friend cleans hers with baking soda. I like the fresh taste of the toothpaste.
