User questions & answers

Question:	The ones I ordered did not have a protective seal on the end of the tube under the cap - aren't they supposed to have seals
Answer:	If a toothpaste comes in a cardboard box, it typically will NOT have a foil seal. The cardboard is sealed at the end flap. However, some versions are made at an alternate plant for capacity reasons. In these cases, there will be a foil seal, and there will be a notification on the package. The Crest Team
Question:	Is your toothpaste gluten free and peanut free
Answer:	Yes -The Crest Team
Question:	Is this toothpaste ok to swallow? My toddler does not know how to spit it yet

User questions & answers

Question:	what is the best selling/most popular flavor
Answer:	I would day used to be Strawberry though now that the formula has changed :( well I'd wager many will be switching. We switched to Hello 🍓
Question:	Is the fluoride fruitilicious comparable to the fluoride free toddler gel (flavor, color
Answer:	Thank you so much for your question. Both kinds of toothpaste have a grape-like flavor so they are similar.
Question:	Is the "children's gel" actually a gel? I'm looking for a gel to be gentler to my 66-year old enamel than regular abrasive toothpaste
Answer:	I wouldn’t classify it as a gel toothpaste. However it’s not abrasive. There’s nothing in this toothpaste to harm your gums or feel anything. It’s a soft smooth paste.
Question:	Have they changed the formula of the purple tube gel toothpaste
Answer:	Thank you for reaching out to us with your question. In January 2020 when we transitioned this toothpaste to a recyclable tube, we also added natural benzyl alcohol as a preservative.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this toothpaste good enough for 8 year olds
Answer:	Hello Adam, Closys mouthwash does not contain CPC. I would highly recommend it. It is on the pricing side but well worth it. You will see a difference, it has made my teeth whiter and it helps in breaking down particles such as plaque build up. It is awesome. The closys tooth paste is also great. The tooth paste & mouthwash is the only one I use after crest prohealth mouthwash turned my teeth brown. Here's the link to the mouthwash: http://www.amazon.com/CloSYS-Mouth-Rinse-16-Ounce/dp/B00156C2FE/ref=sr_1_1?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1393475463&sr=1-1&keywords=closys+mouthwashGood luck. ~Britty
Question:	What is the color of this toothpaste
Answer:	I noticed the 18oz. bottle has 0.05% fluoride because it meant to be used 1 time daily. And the larger 38oz. bottle only has 0.02% fluoride because it’s me at to be used 2 times a day. It seems the smaller bottle is more concentrated. I could be wrong about this but this is my best deductive conclusion

Aside from colors, Act Anticavity is the same as Restoring and Total Care except Anticavity has no alcohol and also contains Menthol, Methyl Salicylate, and Potassium sorbate, also the coloring is different.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product made in the usa? mexico
Answer:	Yes as long as ID is 3/4"
Question:	Do you have a list of ingredients, like if there is artificial sugar in it
Answer:	Whereas you put these on by pushing the teeth together, you remove them by sliding the ends in different directions, perpendicular to the original pushing direction. For tight situations, use two pairs of pliers. Hold the ends of each side without blocking the teeth of the other end. This can be tricky, but it is easy when you've done it a few times. Move each end towards opposite ends of the tube; one up and the other down, or one left and the other right. These ties aren't very wide, and you just have to push far enough so the teeth slide out the sides of the locking channels area. There's no reason to cut and replace these unless you damage them.
Question:	What's the PPM of fluor in it
Answer:	Hello, yes it can, but for the application you mentioned , I won’t recommend it, you definitely need stainless steels ones,
Question:	What are the ingredients
Answer:	No it does not. Get one size up from what you need. Learned the hard way. Also, works poorly with corrugated tubing. I switched to 1" smooth piping by the foot from Lowes.

User questions & answers

Question:	The description of this product says it is Flouride Free but the product information says it is not. Is it or isn't it
Answer:	My toothpaste tube says active ingredient is Sodium fluoride .243%
Question:	Where is this made
Answer:	USA. (Cincinnati, Ohio)
Question:	Does this contain milk, nuts or coconut? i know glycerin and sodium cocoyl glutamate can be sourced from coconut, but doesn't have to be
Answer:	I found that Tom's of Maine was most helpful in providing information about ingredients. First I called and spoke to someone responsible for answering such questions, she sent me a list for the product we spoke about. Since then I found a detailed list of sources for all kinds of ingredients on their website: https://www.tomsofmaine.com/our-promise/ingredients?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIhtC9sJmU5AIVjVuGCh2OAgT9EAAYASABEgKvQ_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds I haven't found precise answers to my or your questions but from what I can tell Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate, Lauryl Glucoside are obtained from coconut, palm or corn. I am assuming that it does contain coconut sometimes based on the market at the time. I don't know about glycerin and milk, I didn't give much thought to glycerin. Tom's says they get it from vegatable oil. Good luck
Question:	Is mint one of the natural flavors? I cannot have any mint. Thank you
Answer:	Tom's of Maine has kids toothpaste without mint. I get the Strawberry flavor for my kids who won't brush with the mint ones.
