Which toothpaste

Options
Is there much difference between them all!

Signal and Crest seem to be two of the cheaper brands but I doubt they are as good as say Colgate and Aquafresh?

What do you go for there is quite a choice?

    Personally I go for Mccleans every time - often on 2 for 1 offers.

    I find I don't get on with the blue colouring in lots of toothpastes (gives me eczema round my mouth) so avoid most coloured ones. And I can't stand the taste of mentadent P (aniseed).

    crest is a massive brand in the US, smaller here but think its just as good as the well known names. when we were kids Aquafresh was the cheaper brand:)

    I think the only difference is taste and texture. I usually buy 2 large Signal tubes in a box in the 99p store and stock up every time I go in. Sometimes they have a 2 pack of Colgate.

    I have used Aquafresh toothpaste in a pump for years and hubby will use any toothpaste so long as its whitening but his usually come in a tube. Mine in a pump last much longer and have less waste at the end.
    I buy them from our local poundshop for me (better value as in tesco they are nearly £2 each for the 100ml size) and recently they have been doing the whitening in pumps too so hubby has gone onto pumps now.


    (did I get enough 'pumps' in there :rotfl:)

    Had been using Colgate for years since I was a kid but now we tend to use Macleans fresh mint, and it tends to be a lot cheaper than Colgate

    Used Colgate as a kid til they changed the formula and it didnt feel as fresh anymore so changed to Metadent P for many years and they THEY changed it to gel type which also doesnt leave your mouth feeling minty fresh. Havent found one I like yet. Did use Colgate Herbal but our local shops stopped stocking it.. currently trying MrS Basics..
