I had used this product in the past, but not long because my teeth never felt as clean as with my regular brand (Colgate Total) and it didn't do anything as far as whitening. The Skin Deep® scoring system was designed to help the public understand whether a product is safe to use or whether it contains ingredients of concern.

Cosmetics and personal care products are not required to be tested for safety before being allowed on the market. Combining the whitening and baking soda and peroxide benefits in one toothpaste gives consumers a truly new option for their home oral care. For consumers who are concerned about companies’ policies on animal testing, Skin Deep reports this information.Colgate markets its products in 194 countries and territories under such strong global brand names as Colgate, Palmolive, Mennen, Ajax, Fab and Softsoap, as well as Hill's Science Diet and Hill's Prescription Diet pet foods. I have been using the Colgate Baking Soda and Peroxide Whitening Brisk Mint Toothpaste probably for about six months. Once the gum irritation started, I started thinking that maybe the toothpaste wasn't cleaning the gum line well enough which may have caused gingivitis problems which in turn irritated my tongue. There were little red dots and redness all along the outer edges of my tongue and you could see the redness/swelling along my gum line.

Colgate is a major brand of anticavity dental care and for that matter, are very successful in what they do but this product fell way short of the goal in my opinion. The safest products score well by both measures, with a low hazard rating and a fair or better data availability rating. Some cosmetics companies have taken People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and Leaping Bunny animal-testing pledges.

Subjects were instructed to brush their teeth twice daily (morning and evening) for one minute with their assigned dentifrice using a soft-bristled toothbrush.Adults and children 2 years of age and older: brush teeth thoroughly, preferably after each meal or at least twice a day, or as directed by a dentist or physician.

If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. Honestly I guess it should have been the first thing I thought of, but toothpaste is one of those things that you would never think wasn't safe. I remembered a few years ago when I used baking soda and water paste as an exfoliant for my face and had similar problems.Mankodi S, Sowinski J, Davies R, Ellwood R, Bradshaw B, Petrone ME, DeVizio W, Chaknis P, Volpe AR, Proskin HM.
