Works well for sensitive teeth
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. With the sensitive level of my teeth, it is quite hard for me to find a right toothpaste. Luckily, I am able to try this one out. I don't sense any discomfort feel at all. Some of the stains also get blurry over the time using it.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This was a better experience with a whitening toothpaste than I've had in the past. They used to be grittier and this toothpaste was smoother, had a gentle minty flavor and didn't leave a weird feeling in my mouth when I finished brushing and rinsing. While I cannot yet comment on the whitening abilities, it was a decent toothpaste aside from that.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Totally recommend this toothpaste for people with sensitivity to strong minty flavors. This toothpaste will leave your teeth feeling clean and your mouth fresh without that icy minty flavor. This is not a strong potent whitening toothpaste so you will not notice the whitening overnight but after a few uses it will become noticeable. I like how overall this is a well rounded toothpaste that also focuses on other issues like sensitivity and gingivitis while also includes a whitening power.

Complete oral care
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This is a complete oral care whitening toothpaste by all means. It fights plaque, bad breath, cavities, sensitivity and enamel erosion. It has a nice mint flavor to make brushing more enjoyable. It has very good price and value for money.

Great!
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This Colgate toothpaste has a great minty taste! I really like so far, but not sure the claims are true or not. Hopefully it truly whitens.

Very thick paste
The only thing that I really have to complain about the Cole gate total active prevention whitening toothpaste is how thick the toothpaste is. I feel like it doesn’t really dissolve well in my mouth and then when I’m done brushing my teeth I’m just kind of blacked with this thick paste over my teeth and it doesn’t foam up well for me. My boyfriend uses it and loves it, but I prefer something with a little bit thinner of a paste, but the taste of the mint is a good mint and it has lasted us for a long time I think because the paste is so thick so you really don’t need to use a lot at all

Thanks for sharing such thoughtful feedback! We’re sorry the thicker texture and foaming weren’t quite what you prefer, though we’re glad you enjoyed the mint taste and found that a little goes a long way. Texture and foam can be very personal, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know. If you’d like help finding a Colgate toothpaste with a lighter feel or more foam, our team would be happy to help. 😊

Not fresh feeling after use of it.
I didn’t like it. Mouth didn’t feel clean after use. It’s didn’t satisfy my expectations on expectations I had on feeling fresh. Had to add toothpaste in order to rinse my mouth out so I wouldn’t say it lasted a long time. Over all I think it was not dependable to clean my teeth.

very good product
Colgate optic white is a game changer for anyone who wants to whitening their teeth in the short period of time. It helps a lot. No sensitive and no allergies at all. The tube lasts long and not too expensive and you can find it everywhere

Favorite for clean and fresh mouth
This is my go-to toothpaste. I like the flavor and taste. I also like the amount of 'foam' it produces while you brush. Some toothpastes get flat and watery and don't feel as if they are actually cleaning your teeth. Colgate gets it right. My mouth is clean and fresh and I haven't had a cavity in years.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I’ve been using Colgate Total Active Prevention Whitening toothpaste daily and like how it leaves my mouth feeling clean and refreshed without an overpowering mint taste. After a few weeks, I noticed a subtle improvement in surface stains, especially from coffee. The whitening is gradual rather than dramatic, but it works well as an everyday toothpaste that supports overall oral hygiene.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The packaging on this product promotes a more organized counter space. It stands up with a flip top, and this keeps things less messy, also. It's a light taste for a paste and left my teeth feeling clean. I recommend. C

Great product!
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This toothpaste works great! I instantly saw that my teeth were whiter after using it. It is minty but doesn't taste bad at all. My teeth felt great after using this toothpaste. I like how it is a value pack as well.

Great toothpaste from a brand I trust
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I liked this Colgate product. I liked that it is a brand that I trust and helps with gingivitis, plaque, tartar, cavities, bad breath, and more. The bonus is that it's a whitening paste also which is nice. The tubes seem a little smaller than the tubes I usually get but this feels like a premium product. The flavor was good and overall I enjoyed this product. I wish it were a little bit cheaper but it was great.

Reliable Oldie but a Goodie!
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This brand is super reliable and I love that it targets every type of tooth concerns you can have! It's very minty and definitely leaves your mouth feeling very fresh and clean. The value pack is super reliable and convenient too! I absolutely love that this gives your mouth "Total" protection against any gum/teeth concerns.

Ok, but won't buy again
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This toothpaste is alright but not my favorite. The first thing I noticed is that opening the toothpaste is kind of messy. I've used other toothpastes with this kind of cap and never really had an issue, so I don't know if it's a cap issue or a paste issue. The toothpaste seemed to do an alright job cleaning my mouth and teeth, but for some reason it really dried my lips out, even though I always wipe my mouth off with clean water after brushing my teeth. I'll use the whole tube, but probably won't buy it again.

Good product
I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I would recommend this product from Colgate. It doesn't hurt some of my teeth who are more sensitive, and my mouth feels fresh in contrast with different brands. A little goes a long way, and it lasts a while.
