Arrow DIY Toothpaste recipe

I wonder if this is safe and healthy:

http://www.onegoodthingbyjillee.com/...conut-oil.html
3 Tbsp coconut oil
3 Tbsp baking soda
25 drops peppermint essential oil
1 packet stevia
2 tsp vegetable glycerin (optional)


Put the coconut oil and baking soda in a bowl and mash up with a fork until blended. Add the peppermint essential oil, stevia, and optional vegetable glycerin and continue to mash and stir until you’ve reached toothpaste consistency.

I wonder if one could substitute xilotol intead of stevia. Amazon sells Xylitol.
