kfeusse Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 my year old HATES all toothpaste except this one Amazon.com: Burts Bees Natural Toothpaste, Kids "Berry Bee" without Fluoride, 4-Ounce Tubes (Pack of 4): Health & Personal Car which they are no longer making....his tube is almost gone and I can't find it anywhere. I want to stay all natural and fluoride free...so if anybody can help me find a new one for him, I would greatly appreciate it. We have tried the orange flavored ones from Burt Bee's and he doesn't like it either. I have told him he doesn't need a toothpaste, but then he says his toothbrush tastes icky....PLEASE help me.

lanabug Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 It's pricy, but my girls have switched to Tate's Natural Miracle toothpaste and have no complaints. It's a mint flavor, but very mild. Spry is also a very mild flavor that we have used and liked. Lana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stripe Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Does your child have a taste he likes? My oldest went on a toothbrushing strike for a while at a young age but got quite excited (at the time) by the baby toothpaste by Weleda, that has a pleasant fennel taste. Anyway most seem to be in the fruit, bubble gum, or mint categories, and it's not, so I thought I'd mention it. I think Weleda makes another one that's called Sea Salt or something. I've never tried it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blessed3x Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 My kids like Tom's of Maine Silly Strawberry toothpaste. :iagree: DS10 does not like toothpaste, or the 'minty' types at all. This is what he uses and is ok with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stripe Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Silly Strawberry is really banana strawberry. Which is a stronger taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrookValley. Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 It's pricy, but my girls have switched to Tate's Natural Miracle toothpaste and have no complaints. It's a mint flavor, but very mild. Spry is also a very mild flavor that we have used and liked. Lana My experience with Tate's is that they are total scam artists. I would use caution if you are ordering it directly from them. My kiddo likes the Tom's strawberry, but I see you've already tried that and it's a no-go. Burt's is definitely not making their kid's toothpaste anymore. The Spry brand that Lana mentioned above also has a couple of kid's tooth gels (scroll down the page a bit to find them). Maybe one of those flavors would work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momof3littles Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 My child who does not like strong mint flavors likes the fennel xylitol toothpaste from Trader Joe's. The rest of us use that or Spry (fluoride-free version). Spry is minty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momto2Cs Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Some other options, since you say he doesn't care for the Tom's Silly Strawberry... Weleda (unsure on flavor, mint maybe?) Jason (orange flavored) Kiss my Face (berry flavored!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomadicmama Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I second the Tom's of Maine Strawberry. That's all my kids would use when they were smaller. Now they use the Trader Joe's mint one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kebo Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 If you are open to Xylitol, you might look into Xyliwhite. No fluoride, pretty mild taste. My 5 year old likes it better than the other options we've tried. She likes mint, but not so strong that it is "hot", and this one gets the thumbs up from her.

Spy Car Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 My kids like Tom's of Maine Silly Strawberry toothpaste. Yes, I would try this one. The taste is quite pleasant and light, not the cloying "strawberry" taste common with artificial flavoring. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
