    New fav toothpaste. My front tooth was sensitive from the old toothpaste I was using to whiten. I started using sensodyne to help with sensitivity but there is no whitening with sensodyne. This toothpaste does both and more. Teeth feel so clean after. Whiter smile and no longer have a sensitive front tooth. Never switching toothpaste again!

    Always available at my stores and reasonably priced. Mild flavor, which I enjoy more of a stronger one but not too bad. Seems to keep my teeth white but not sure if it’s getting any whiter or just staying the same.

    These whitening toothpastes do not work as well as the crest brand unfortunately. They feel nice and make your breath smell fresh but unfortunately they do not clean your teeth or whitenen them as much as the other brand. They are a little more affordable but they do come at a cost.

    I've been using Colgate Total for many years. It tastes good, cleans well and leaves my breath fresh for hours. My dentist recommended it to me not knowing I had already been using it for years. I haven't had a cavitiy in decades. I highly recommend this toothpaste.

    Me and my husband use this toothpaste most of the time. It has a nice taste not too strong, and leaves a fresh feeling afterwards. We mostly use Colgate brands and Hello also. These two are one of the most toothpastes use. Colgate always does its jobs well.

    Reliable Everyday Protection

    I've been using **Colgate Cavity Protection Toothpaste with Fluoride** for years, and it's still one of the most dependable options out there. It has a clean, classic mint flavor—not too strong or overpowering—and it leaves my mouth feeling fresh and clean after every brush. What I appreciate most is the fluoride formula, which really helps strengthen enamel and prevent cavities. I've noticed fewer sensitivity issues over time, and my dentist consistently compliments the overall health of my teeth. It's not flashy or trendy, but if you're looking for an affordable, no-nonsense toothpaste that *actually works*, Colgate Cavity Protection is a solid choice. Perfect for daily use and trusted by generations for a reason.

    Recently decided to try this toothpaste. After a few weeks of use, I enjoy how fresh it makes me feel and it does not cause any burning sensation. It also does not make my teeth more sensitive.

    Not overly minty , just the right flavour. Great value for money especially when you buy the double pack, works out cheaper. Packaging is bright. It really helps stop the effect of cavity’s and also helps brighten that smile too.
