Q: Is this safe to swallow?

submitted by sarahvanl8 - 2 years ago
  • A: Hi Sarah, this is Lisa one of the dentists and co-founders. Thank you so much for reaching out with your question. We created our products for kids to be totally safe for children to use. As dentists, we understand that children don't really learn to spit effectively until they are around the age of 8 so it's normal for them to swallow a little of the paste while brushing and this is totally safe. What I used to recommend to my patients is to encourage your child to spit when they are brushing but set your expectations- it may take a while for them to learn how to do this properly. It's totally ok if they swallow some of the remaining toothpaste while brushing. I hope this helps and if you have any further questions, I'm so happy to answer. Just shoot me and email on lisa@madebydentists.com

In Cali - 29 days ago, Verified purchaser
Tastes disgusting! Both of my kids tried the watermelon and bubble gum flavor and thought they were disgusting, so my husband and I tried them and we agreed. How did this get through flavor testing and people are buying this? Not only that, but the watermelon is this gross looking gray sludge color that is off putting before you even try it.

Hi In Cali, sorry to hear that your family didn’t like our Bubblegum and Watermelon flavor toothpaste.

My 5 year old tasted this and hated it. She can be picky so I tried it myself, it’s pretty gross, even for toothpaste. The consistency is strange as well, like a dry, thick gel. It’s on the expensive side for toothpaste so I definitely expected better

Love the smell of the watermelon one! But don’t really know if I love the toothpaste, it’s an interesting consistency compared to other toothpaste’s, when it dries on the cap it’s very thick and sticky and hard to wipe off. Seems to do what it’s meant to do and the smell is so good but don’t know if I’d buy again.
