I still got most of a tube to work my way through. I think I'm going try the cheapest colgate next.

I recommend whatever the cheapest Sensodyne is.

Mint is milder than Colgate. Active ingredient is Strenuous fluoride which is better for your teeth and bonus points it reduces sensitivity to hot/cold

In my experience, Colgate tends to leave a feeling that the teeth and mouth are still not as clean as they should be — at least the cheap varieties do. That's while I scrub in there for like fifteen minutes.

In comparison, everything feels squeaky clean after Blend-a-Med. But idk if it's widely available outside of the Europes.

$2 tube of Colgate w/ baking soda & peroxide. All you need.

[–] Icytrees@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why not just put washing soda directly in your mouth?

My chemistry is old and bad but I'm pretty sure that's what it makes.

[–] w3ird_sloth@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Try it and get back to me once your teeth are fresh n clean.

Hey I'm not saying it's bad, just trying to save a step.

Do you like cinnamon? I switched to cinnamon paste and floss, because my cat loves mint. I didn't know it existed until I just searched out of desperation.

You don't like your cat checking your breath?

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I do like cinnamon. So much so I just restocked my Wrigleys big red supply. I don't think I want cinnamon toothpaste though.
