Toothpaste without fluoride sucks??? Why? What makes it better with fluoride? What’s your basis for saying that? There are tons of great-tasting fluoride free toothpaste at natural food stores.
This one, for instance, filled with pure, organic and natural ingredients:

Here’s its composition:
Calcium Carbonate, Glycerin, Water, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Flavor*, Carrageenan, Mentha Viridi (Spearmint) Leaf Oil, Quillaja Saponaria (Soap Bark) Root Extract, Camellia Sinensis (White Tea) Leaf Extract, Punica Granatum (Pomegranate) Fruit Extract, Vaccinium Macrocarpon (Cranberry) Fruit Extract, Vitis Vinifera(Grape) Seed Extract, Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Extract, Sodium Bicarbonate,

Natural mouthwash can be used in addition to natural toothpaste. Organic coconut oil can also be applied to teeth daily as it’s antibacterial, antifungal and remineralizes them.
