What is the Best Toothpaste for Kids

What’s the best toothpaste for kids?

Another question I get asked a lot.

Going to a store and looking in the toothpaste aisle can be super overwhelming.

How do you know which one to choose! Which one will be best for your child?”

Well, for me it was trial and error, My daughter hated toothpaste when she was little, the taste, texture and smell. I purchased 12 different brands back then, tried them all and now there are even more choices. For years I just brushed her teeth with a wet toothbrush and used my finger to apply MI Paste after brushing, this was our routine until she was around six. It was then I discovered Colgate watermelon toothpaste and as long as we only used a smear she agreed to use toothpaste. The Dental Hygiene 411 team has you covered with some options, so you have an idea of what is available on the market for you to try. We’re sharing a quick guide to toothpaste for kids and offering suggestions and a few of our favorites.

I am giving you permission to not use toothpaste if your child spits it out at you like my daughter did.Toothpaste is not for everyone! I would rather you get the tooth brush in their mouth and remove plaque rather than spending precious time with the toothpaste battle.

There are many things that not only cause cavities but prevent them as well. Even with what I did for a living, I had no idea as a new Mom everything I needed to know about a healthy mouth and how it is all connected. What I share are things I wish I had known back then.

If you follow me you know I feel toothpaste and toothbrushes are a personal choice and there is no one size fits all in dentistry. I like options. So we are providing some.
For me personally, I get canker sores easily, I found the toothpaste I use makes a difference as to how often I get them. So again, I tried many brands of toothpaste. It has changed over the years. Below are the two we use, love and that work for our family now. We love them so much I became an ambassador for the first two companies listed here. Some are Amazon affiliate links.
